Pours a clwar brown/chocolate color. Beige, fluffy head formation with mild retention. Caramel, malt on the nose, taste follows. Slight bitterness to round it up. Thin mouthfeel. Not a bad one, for a raisonable price.

You know, this is actually very good. I'm just rating to beer, not style. Yes I am familiar with just about every style of beer known to man, this one a dark, Euro lager, huh. Whatever. It's an fucking beer, and a pretty damn good one.
Dark, almost black with an very nice frothy, fresh, head. It's different colorization then what you would think. Smells and tastes chocolate, coffee, yeast, bread, malts. Mild puckering there must be hops somewhere. Brewed in the German purity law I hope? please don't lie about that. Yes it followed an 16 oz Arrogant Bastard, then an 16 oz DFH 90 minute, so to hold up to that without boring me did pretty well.

Can...pours a clear col color beer with a small tan tight-pored cap...aromas are front...light sweetness roasted malts, light grassiness. Flavor is smooth and pleasing even if uneventful...decent roast malt in front, malt forward, noble hops in the background...verges on sweet bit eh finish is long and smooth with chocolate sweetness at the end...decent enough dunkel for a commercial brewer.
