Some refer to the Dunkel style as the original bier of Munich and its surrounding villages (Dörfer). This everyday bier ranges in color and sweetness depending on the amount of Munich and roasted malts used. The sweetness of the malt is then balanced by the use of another Bavarian friend…the Hallertau hop…in this specific case, Hersbrucker, grown near Wolnzach, Hallertau.

Sample at Urban Chestnut Flight Bar. Clear dark amber color with a medium off-white head that diminishes steadily to a film. Small patches of lace. Roast malt, fruit and caramel in the nose. Light-bodied with flavors of toasted malt, mild earthy hops and fruit. The finish is sweet with a caramel malt aftertaste. Decent overall.

Pours a near-black from a bottle. Sweet molasses-y aroma. Similar flavor, a little pumpernickel. Good beer.

16oz bottle. Pretty classic and true example of the style. Sweet, but medium bodied. Clean and easy, no frills stuff. Well made, quality ingredients. Fresh. Solid.
