Kamakura Beer My Funny Valentine 2017 6% looks like the ABV has gone up... This beer is listed as a dark lager (Tmavy) on Ratebeer. It is a luscious dark brown with a thick beige head. A fruity nutty Graham aroma. Quite full bodied with a velvety mouthfeel and a grainy graham flavor, corn husks, nuts, lightly bitter. A fairly tasty brew that is quite a different take on a Valentine's beer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle, mail order from the brewery. Fruity, caramel aroma, cherry, cookies. Dark brown, very cloudy, with lace. Decently rich caramel mlt flavor with brownies, fruit, and a tingly hop bitterness. Nice body, though a bit too much carbonation. Slight cola flavor as well. Pretty strong, long-lasting bitterness for the style, coming from hops, it seems. Not very roaasted, though a bit smoky. Decent fruitiness, just a Bit tart. Nice dunkel, with good hops giving some pine and quite a bit of menthol, which was evidently intended to give it a mint-chocolate flavor, which it has. A bit weird, but a pretty good, hoppy dunkel. 2011 version. From reading, it seems different to last year’s.

Caramel in color with a tan head. Heavy on the malt aroma. Light caramel, some chocolate, and roasted malts. THin, carbonated body. Flavor seems like a roasted dunkel. Malts, caramel, roasted malts, light chocolate. Dry finish. Mediocre.
