Many thanks for this bottle to kevnic2008. Piwo z malenka piana, kolorem jasnej czerwieni, zapachem sliwek wegierek. W smaku slodowosc, karmelowosc lekka. Zabraklo nieco wytrawnosci. Nie tego sie spodziewalem po klasztornym browarze.

This pours a clear mahogany colour with a firm 1" head of white foam.

The smell is that of what dark malts bring to the table. An aromatic mix of roasted and grainy malts that has a lovely sweetness to it. The sweet almost smells fruity, like black cherries.

No fruit in the taste at all. Just solid roasted malt flavour with grain ad a light sweet note here and there. Not particularly bitter nor sweet. In between I’d say.

Medium body, lightish carbonation.

A solid if not great example of the style, imho.

Bottled (From bierzwerg.de). Very deep ambery brown colour with a mediumsized beige head. Aroma is mild roast, some toffee, raisins and quite sweet notes as well. Flavour is mild ripe fruits, some toffee, a bit herbal and grassy notes as well as some slight toasted notes. Leaves a bit thin as for the palate.

Flasche von Hopfen & Malz, Berlin. - Schönes Kastanienbraun, klar. - In der Nase Karamelbonbons und deutliche milde Säure. - Der Antrunk ist breit malzig-süß mit milden Röstmalznoten und einer frischen pikant-fruchtigen Note. Durchschnittlich rezent, vollmundig. Dunkles Malz und ein pikanter Säureton bilden einen angenehmen Kontrast; hinzu kommt etwas Gras. Zum Ende hin etwas leer. Klingt malzig und fruchtig mit nur einer Ahnung von zitrusfruchtigem Hopfen aus. - Weniger süß als andere Dunkle, könnte aber für meinen Geschmack deutlich mehr Röstmalz und mehr Hopfen bieten.

From a bottle shared. Pours a clear cola brown with a thin ecru head. Aroma of caramel with a hint of licorice. Quite sweet with flavors of sorghum. Medium to heavy do died with light carbonation. Sticky sweet finish.

bottle from Bierzwerg. Clear brown colour, creamy off-white head. Subtle hop aroma, reminding me of their Helles. Grainy and robust malty base with lots of dark malts, caramel and a shy touch of dark fruit. Lovely hops, woody, earthy and slightly grassy and floral. What a stunning Dunkel!

Bottle looks really good. Beer in the glass dark brown, nice head. Starts mild-malty, modest dry, not too roasty. Finish with some earthy hints, malty-dry. Mild, but not washy. Nice!
