Bottle. A- Malty, subtle toffee. A- Dark brown color, clear liquid, beige head. T- Iron, watery, malty, subtle bread. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, boring finish. O- To make a short story long, a Dunkler Bock was one of my last styles to try. Searched for ever and everywhere to find one. Finally came across this a few days after I finally found a Dunker Bock (Anchor Bock to be exact). I loved the Anchor and was excited to try my second Dunkler Bock now. Well, this sucked. I expected it to have a fair amount of chocolate in it with some other nice notes but not so. It was very malty. Lots of blood/iron taste to it and very boring. A bland beer.

Bottle courtesy of HuskerTan, thank you. Opaque dark brown color, big beige head with good retention. Aroma of cocoa powder, coffee grounds, nutella. Taste is rich and roasty chocolate dipped in espresso. Not sure this is your classic Baltic porter, but it’s tasty.

12oz bottle. Filtered yellow-tan body. Lots of small floaties. Foamy white head. A pretty good beer, if you can get into White IPA. Full bodied. The hops are astringent and dry, the orange peel and coriander are more in the finish. Oddly refreshing. Solid offering.

Sampled from the bottle. Pours a clear dark amber brown with no head whatsoever. Aroma has notes of sweet dark grains and marshmallow supported by sweet pumpkin and spice. Flavor has lots of marshmallow and dark grains with spice supporting.
