Reviewed from notes.
This was poured into a pint glass at the brewpub.
The appearance was a ruddy dark orange close to muddled brown sort of color with some light ruby hues along the sides. Subtle transparency. Sly carbonation to hit a cap of a white head. Dissipates nicely.
The aroma had some sweet brisk German lager-like breadiness blending a touch of caramel and toffee to it and the light grassy hops of I’m hoping Tetnang and/or Hallertau, but honestly, well, it’s the grassiness with a touch of a light spice-black pepper-ish.
The flavor starts with the sweet German breadiness and develops with the malts fluently. Leads into a nice smooth sweet bready aftertaste and finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a good sessionability about it. Good carbonation. ABV felt right.
Overall, in my opinion, nice Munich Dunkel lager worthy of having again with it’s respectable food. Okay, nice to see that they can brew a somewhat lighter sort of beer. Nice to see the potential within them.
