Created with our friends Marika and Aaron from Scratch Brewing Company in Ava, IL. This Munich-Style Dunkel collaboration showcases the artistry of foraged brewing. Marika and Aaron hand-gathered fig leaves and sweet clover, adding distinctive botanical notes that complement the beer's rich, malty backbone.
This dark lager pours a deep amber-brown with a creamy tan head. The foraged fig leaves contribute subtle earthy, vanilla nuances, while the sweet clover adds delicate honey. The result is a smooth, medium-bodied Dunkel with complex layers of roasted malt sweetness balanced by the unique terroir of Southern Illinois botanicals.

16oz can from Tavour. Almost clear, dark brown pour, minimal layer of beige head. Roasted malt aroma, nutty. Taste opens with a prominent roasty bitterness, burnt toast, coffee, woody. Bitterness hangs tough throughout the whole session.

Aromas are clean dark malt, toast and a slight hint of molasses. Flavors are similar to nose, bittersweet with just right body and carbonation. Very nice beer.
