A dark beer of premium-class and most popular in its region: these dark brown to black beers have a mild-roasted malty character without the associated bitterness. As speciality beers, they have a full body with a gently enhanced malty flavour and an aroma with low to moderate levels of sweetness. Hop bitterness is low to medium in character.

500ml, can.
I'd say a pretty decent dark beer, which was surprisingly easy to drink (it was not my first beer for today :P )
No caramel taste, rather the roasted malt and coffee, with earthy notes. Dark-dark brown to black in color, small beige head.

0.5 l can. Black color, quickly disappearing beige head. Roasted malts, coffee and earthy notes in aroma. The taste is like the aroma but has some strange, not pleasant overtone. Ordinary dunkel.

Can, 4.8%. Brown with a beige head that lasts a while. 3+ Shyish caramel and roasty aroma. Perhaps a little drier and more roasty than guessed but a bit empty in the middle. Low bitterness. Meek.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.
