A really strange way to definite what it is a brown ale, probably on the Swiss way, this beer is a dunkel münchner lagee, nothing to see with an English or American brown ale, boring lack of aromas, a bit metalic, a bit roasted, 15.06.2020, drinking it at Bonfol, buying it at the Rio Getränkmarkt of Emmenbrücke.

11/11/2019. Bottle, sample, courtesy of Saxo & co. Pours dark gold with an average size off-white head. Aroma of malt, toffee, fruit, nut and light chocolate. Medium sweetness, light bitterness. Moderate body, watery texture, average to soft carbonation. Quite bland.

Bottle @Højbjerg Tasting. Clear amber, small offwhite head. Malty aroma, faint nutty notes. Caramely, malty flavour, light fruity notes. Can't find any of the promised roasted things. Not really a brown ale.

Huge thanks to quack-duck for that one! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass zippy, small head. Starts fine malty, light roasty. Hints of caramel. Finish more dry, a bit boring malty. Okay.
