Utopian dark lager is our interpretation of Bavarian Dunkel style. We brewed this lager with dark British malts & a traditional double decoction mash,teasing out a bouquet caramelised nuts and read crust. A slow low temperature fermentation and over four weeks of cold lagering results in a beer which pours a rich amber,with malt complexity and exceptional drinkablity . Nutty. ,rich,full bodied, unfiltered beautifully balanced.

Canned (from Systembolaget Avion Umeå, thanks Jonathan!). Deep amber colour, small brown head. Aroma is toffeeish, mild toasted tones with some berries too. Flavour is chocolaty, some toasted tones, mild grains and some bready elements. Crisp and quite refreshing. Somewhat dry palate.

Can from a Qwerty Beer Box. Aroma had is malty, grainy, with dark berries and coffee. Opaque dark gold. Thick foamy microbubbled off-white head. Medium bitter with a tangy sour edge. Coffee. The sour edge developd into sweet fruit and caramel. But the bitter notes remain throughout. Light-medium bodied. Slick. A touch creamy. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long if not OTT finish. Enjoyable.

Kopparbrun med stort tjockt skum. Vörtig och maltig doft med inslag av choklad. Lite vass munkänsla. Smak av rostad malt och choklad. Torr finish med inslag av rök och charkuterier. God.
