(bottle, Spezial 205, 5.5% abv) Clear, deep golden colour with a mid-sized and not very persistent, slightly off-white frothy head. Sweet caramel-malty nose, slightly bready and nutty with traces of cardboard. Medium-sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with a moderate carbonation. Cara-malty, slightly bready and nutty taste with light herbal accents towards the finish, which is moderately dry, sweet-bitter and malt-accented. Although it is close to their Volksfestbier I´d say it is a different brew (26.05.08).

(bottle, Volksfest-Bier, 5.5% abv) Clear, golden colour with a medium-sized, slightly of-white foamy head. Sweet grainy (cara-)malt aroma with notes of biscuits, honey and a very subtle fruity touch of pine apple and ripe pears in the background. Moderately sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with a smooth carbonation. Cara-malty taste with biscuits and honey-fruity notes; medium-dry, sweet malt-accented finish with a very shy hoppy bitterness. Smooth and quite pleasant; might be the right session-drink on the Volksfest (26.05.08).

Bottle: Deep ruby-amber coloured, mid-sized fluffy beige head, slowly collapsing; clean, moderate nose: sweet dark malt, caramel, the smallest amount of toasted malt, shy hops and a very light metallic touch; moderate, clean sweet-bitter flavour, not too light bodied for a beer of 4.7%, silky MF; traces of cacao in the caramelly, but not too sweet finish, some bitterness round the brew. Good, clean Dunkels are hard to find, this brew is one of those....

Leicht malziger Antrunk, in dem der zuerst untertönig getreidige Ton in den Vordergrund rückt. Lascher Mittelteil, die Getreidigkeit ist weiter präsent. Zum Ende hin wird das Bier wieder malziger und damit gleichzeitig süßer. Dazu leicht fruchtig und modrig. Test vom 25.10.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 11,7,7,5,9,6 - 6,80

Getrunken beim 1. BTO-Treffen. Das Bier schmeckt hopfig und hat eine säuerliche Note, im Mittelteil angenehm malzaromatisch. Der Abgang passt nicht ganze zum Rest des Bieres, er präsentiert sich bitter-herb. Recht aromatisches Bier, dazu recht süffig – das beste Bier der Becher-Reihe. Test vom 7.1.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,11,12,11,11,11 - 10,95
