On tap at the brewery. Clear gold lasting white head. Some hop and lemon on the aroma. S9me building hop on the finish. Noble hop flavours. Very decent pilsner. Good mouthfeel. Love it.

Gravity pour from a wooden cask at the brewery. Toast aroma. Brown beer lasting beige head. Cadburys milk chocolate aroma. Then very malty in the mouth. Great mouthfeel. Then some white pepper on the finish. Tastes like the best dunkel ive ever had. Amazing. Like the best British dark mild with a white pepper hop finish. Touch of walnut maybe. The mouthfeel gets a 5.. biscuit kicks in later. Chocolate biscuit.

Vom Faß (bayerischer Anstich) in der Brauerei, in der sich an diesem 4. Adventswochenende eine illustre Runde von Bockbierliebhabern versammelt hat. - Tiefdunkles Kastanienbraun mit rotem Schimmer, klar; üppiger Schaum. - Sehr milde Nase: etwas Röstmalz, Mokka, zart erdig. - Antrunk satt dunkelmalzig mit Karamel und nur dezenter Süße, Noten von Bayrisch Blockmalz und Mokka und Anklänge an herbe Frucht (Grapefruit); alles vielschichtig aufgebaut und perfekt abgestimmt. Mild rezent, vollmundig aber nicht zu breit, unglaublich süffig. Langsam baut sich eine wuchtig röstig-erdige Hopfenherbe auf, die in einen enorm langen bitteren Nachtrunk mündet. Den Alkohol schmeckt man kaum heraus, aber die Folgen sind fatal, wie am Nebentisch sicht- und hörbar wird. - Ein Ausnahmebock: komplex, wuchtig und doch rund, jeder Schluck eine Offenbarung. Ebenbürtig den besten belgischen Starkbieren, sozusagen das untergärige Gegenstück zu Westmalle Dubbel.

On tap at Akkurat. Clear copper with a medium head. Aroma of bread, grass, some hops and light spices. Similar taste. The body was rather light and the finish dry. Nicely drinkable. A tasty one.

500ml bottle [Thanks to bartlebier for this Top 50 gem!]. Clear chestnut colour with copper glimmer and average, frothy to creamy, half-way lasting, moderately lacing, off-white to beige head. Rich and intense, dark malty aroma, sweet-ish notes of malt lozenge and milk chocolate, hints of nuts and nougat, some toffee and caramel, a spicy, roasty dark malty touch as well. Taste is dry, slightly roasty dark malty, subtle remnant sweetness, hints of nuts, dark chocolate, some toffee, caramel, a leafy grassy hoppy touch of green hazelnut; lasting. minimally bitter, nutty finish. Very well balanced, superb drinkability - could as well be, if tasted blind, my favourite Brown Ale.

Draught @ Akkurat. Good balance of a sweet doughy maltiness and a herbal bitterness. It also has notes of orange and knäckebröd. Really fun and drinkable! One of the better dunkels I’ve had.

Bottle @ Haket. Pours clear deep amber with a rather small frothy goldenish beige head that leaves some sparse trace on the glass while dissipating. Smell is malty and floral with dark bread, caramel, hay, honey, minerals and lemon peal. Taste is slightly sweet, bitter, slightly malty and floral. Mouthfeel is soft, round, tiny astringent and medium bodied. Finish is tiny sweet and bitter with dark bread, caramel, hay, minerals, iron and lemon peal. Solid malty beer but hints of metal drags down the score. --- Beer merged from original tick of Gradl Leupser Dunkel on 12 Jan 2016 at 21:17 - Score: 6. Original review text: Great malt base but metallic hop notes drags down the score.
