Warning! Early amateur rating! Dark lager. Smooth and malty. Not complex but pretty drinkable.

Bottle. Clear, copper pour, leaving an off-white to beige head. Roasted nose with some fruits and caramel. Roasted, caramel flavor with a fruityness to balance it. Medium body. A quite nice one, yet not "up there". (071005)

33 cL bottle. Pours dark brown with a lacing white head. Slight roasted aroma. Flavour is dry roasted malt, not with much sweetness though. Bitterness both from the roasted malt and the hops. Ends roasted malty and slight bitter in the finish. Nice.

Dark brown with a short-lived tan head. Aroma of roasted malt and dark fruits. Flavour of caramel and dark chocolate with a sweet finish. A decent attempt, in my view, at replicating a dunkel.

330ml bottle from Sainsbury’s. Pours a drak reddy/brown colour with good sized off white head. Very interesting and tasty beer some pleasant soft maltiness but with fruit and hints of a bitter dark chocolateness. Really enjoyed this.

330ml bottle from Sainsbury’s. Beautiful deep ruby colour, lasting thick tan head. Coffee aroma, bit of powder, some dark fruits (plums). Soft in mouth, more fruity choc/coffee. Good fresh plum flavour. Very faint hop. Nice dark lager, very drinkable. Bit of ashtray on finish.
