Deep brown body and good nitro foam, though its staying power is limited. The smell is all maraschino cherry, very intense and very cloying, and making no sense in a beer like this. Taste is fruity malt, more cherry, a bit of cocoa ending very sickly sweet. I'd be more kind if this was noted as cherry forward but it wasn't, and even then it just seems haphazard.

Sparkling clear gold body and good foam. Weak coffee aroma, a bit of honey it seems. Taste is a mellow coffee vibe, vague grain, ending smooth. Kind of subdued but some people are probably into that.

Semi hazy weak gold body and modest foam. Soft orangey hops on the nose with a bit of pine. Taste is mellow orangey hops, a bit of candy, ending a little wet. There is very little to like here.

Clear gold body and minimal foam. Very faint citrus if I inhale deeply, just like Bill Clinton didn't. Taste is wheaty banana, soft citrus, ending with lingering sweetness. Quite soft and boring but certainly drinkable.

Light clear gold body and modest foam. Okay coffee aroma, slightly sweet and styrofoamy. Taste is a very nice meld of coffee and grassy hops, ending smooth and sweet. As far as coffee lagers go, this is doing quite well.

Poured from 473mL can. Hazy gold with small white head. Cucumber, pickle juice, touch of salt. It is what it is, inoffensive.

Deep ruby brown body and minimal foam, looks watery. Vague wet fruity caramel on the nose. Taste is vague biscuit, soft caramel, ending wet. This is really a poor excuse for a dunkel.

Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 5.5
Murky dark brown body and okay foam. Lots of molasses on the nose but nothing else. Taste is sweet biscuit, chocolate hints, ending smooth and a little wet. It sort of hits the dunkel vibe but is ultimately a little haphazard.

Cloudy deep pink body and bad foam. Mellow fruitiness on the nose, slightly sweet, but too soft. Taste is very tart cranberry, possible blood orange notes, soft grain hints. Despite its tartness it's rather subdued, but okay.

Hazy deeper yellow body and some modest foam on top. Lots of wheat dough on the nose, good banana. Taste is chewy wheat with bitter hops, soft soda notes. smooth and crisp enough, slightly flawed, but most won't notice. I did.
