16.9 oz bottle. Poured a clear dark brown-orange color. Head was one finger high, light tan, and left a bit of lace behind. Aroma was of malty molasses accented by a hint of campfire. Slightly sweet and full bodied. Molasses came out again in the flavor with some brown sugar and a splash of alcohol.

Bottle- 16.9 oz....No head, creamy brown pour. Aroma of a porter- sweet and chocolate. Chocolate and smoke on the nose and tongue, bit of mustiness lingers. Rich, complex, nice.

Nutty aroma with a dark, rich color and not much head. Ver nutty and full flavor from start to finish. Rich, smooth aftertaste containing hints of cocoa and coffee.

Bottle purchased at Pizza Port bottle shop. This dunkles appeared and gave off the same impression a glass of soda pop would have because of the light tinted brown and fizzy film of head. In the aroma, a mild dose of caramel malt and chocolate notes can be found. I would say the flavor is the same as the description I mentioned about the aroma, but it will become more diluted and thin. Still a sweet and soft dunkles to be had, although, I won’t be picking this up again.

1pt 0.9oz bottle. Aroma is of sweet malts and yeasts. Notes of bread, caramel, wood, and malt. Large tan foamy head that left good lacing and mostly diminished. Dark brown/ruby hue but clear. Flavor is mild but sweet and spicy with a medium finish. Palate is chewy and medium bodied. Watery and soft. A good woody, earthy, bready brew that really hit the spot. Worth a try.

Bottle - 500mml. Pours a hazy terracotta brown body with average carbonation and a nice beige frothy head. Complex malty/hoppy aroma with herbal, toffee, fruity and spicy hints. Its taste is well balanced and is less punchy than I was expecting. It carries plum/raisin and brown sugar notes, and ends with a sweet and relatively mild finish. Very enjoyable.
