For Beer Geeks And Rock Freaks

Rating: 2.5

Tags:

Astringent mocha scent turns acidic on the tongue, upsetting quickly fading roasted nuttiness of cola-flowing lager. Closer to weak, indistinct brown ale. Brewery defunct: 2006.

Rating: 2.5

Tags:

Silky pale amber medium-bodied “dunkel”" (dark) lager retains moderate caramel creaminess and gentle roasted barley-candied malt sweetness, but hindered fruit blandness, stifled earthiness, and faint smokiness lost in midst.

Rating: 3

Tags:

Pungent hop-grain confluence politely embitters single malt Scotch flow. Wood tones and cardboard edge half-sweetened to thick black molasses finish.

Rating: 4

Tags:

Premier garnet-hued German dark retains chocolate-molasses overtone and raisin footnote to soft sucrose finish. Smooth nutty mocha ambiance reminiscent of delicious light porter.

Rating: 2.5

Tags:

Vague Munich-styled dark lager lacks character as musty berry aroma, barley-roasted molasses sweetness, and dirty water flow deadened by faint Merlot finish. Dried fruit nuances neutralized early on.

Rating: 3

Tags:

Fine auburn lager with up-front barley roast, caramelized yeast apex, and chocolate liqueur creaminess complementing syrupy sugared flow. Better carbonation and fuller finish would increase value.

Rating: 2.5

Tags:

Dundee’s staple beer priced right for less discrimating palaltes. Overriding sour honeyed malts turn cloy above thinly veiled hop-fueled roasted barley murk of oily moderate-bodied lager. Dewy mocha malts and unspecific citrus notes retreat to astringent vegetal nature.

Rating: 4

Tags:

Sharp hop roast embitters sugary malt splurge, bruised orange endurance, and ester-y red fruit murmur of fascinating Vienna-styled ruby-hued clear-bottled lager. Copper ale-like subtleties (faint nut, dusky mocha, tinny finish) absorb soft water crisping, mildew-y maple earthiness, and dank charcoal-tobacco illusions.

Monster movie cleavage queen Elvira provides promo for full-bodied lager. Overtones of holiday seasoning (nutmeg-coriander) and red ale fruitiness (apple-pear-peach) provide zesty burst of sweetness to simmering cocoa malting.

Rating: 3

Tags:

Dry auburn-hued German dark lager brings honeyed wheat, toasted barley, and caramelized nuttiness to less salient soured chocolate malt finish. Minor tobacco roast knocks back slight astringency.

Rating: 3

Tags:

Smoky cured meat aroma and Band-Aid mouthfeel give inceptive prickly-hopped tongue a peppery spicing, but girding beechwood seasoning depletes barley roast. Instead, piquant amber lager settles to sudsy cocoa-chocolate malt frailty.

Rating: 3

Tags:

Mellow ruby-maroon German dunkel-styled lager provides frisky hop nose to dominating chocolate malt sweetness. Cola nut illusion found amongst toasted barley seam.
