Bottle. Pours clear dark brown wi shades of ruby and airy but stable beige head. Clear aroma of caramel malt, with notes of roast and hops and touches of yeast. Bitter, roasty flavour with hoppy notes, complemented by sweet notes of caramel, malt and yeast. Hints of metal. Roasty and estery aftertaste. Medium to high carbonation. Reasonable as such and quite decent for the style but rather anonymous.

Bottled. Ruby red colour. not much head. Aroma is bready malts, sweet caramelly notes as well as mildly toasted notes. Flavour is quite much the same. Something between dunkel and schwarzbier in my opinion.
