Bottle. High long lasting off-white creamy head. Very nice clear dark brown body. Distinct barley malt aroma with a touch of caramel. Flavor is bittersweet barley malt plus caramel with kind of dustyness I cannot realy describe. Low carbonation and short aftertaste.

Bottle. Dark copper. Nose has malts, flowers and syrup. Small head, disappears completely. Flavor is slightly burnt, dry, no aftertaste. Some lingering bitterness and sourness. Very easy, a bit too easy maybe,

Funny that I like it better on bottle in Sweden after quite a few other beers than on site at the brewery gardens...

clear brown colour with a little dark beige foam; a bit toasty with gentle toffeeish notes; moderately sweet but with some initial tartness; medium-bodied; low bitterness; long caramelish and malty finish - a proud dunkel

500ml bottle served at perfect temperature at an outdoor cafe in Freising, Bavaria. Thin, off-white head over a deep mahogany coloured body. Malty to the nose. Suitable sweet malty flavour with notes of cocoa and hops. Dry ending. Rather foamy mouthfeel. Easy drinking. Not among the best German dunkels (24.06.2007).
