Description
In the years 1891 and 1892, the Gütermann family built a brewery in Saalfeld that was modern from the perspective of the time. During the last days of the war the brewery was completely destroyed. But the brewery was quickly rebuild; from 1948 to 1991 the brewery was state-owned. At the time of the reunification of Germany in 1989, the brewery was in a technically completely outdated condition. In 1991 the brewery became a private company. After large investments the Bürgerliche Brauhaus Saalfeld became a modern brewery. A share of 23% is owned by Kulmbacher Brauerei AG.

bottle from Bierzwerg. The back label says it is a Schwarzbier, despite the beer being called Dunkel. Clear deep dark colour, nearly black, dense beige head. Aroma of coffee and roasetd malts. Medium-bodied, slightly malty with intensive flavours of roasetd malts, coffee and dark chocolate. Stout-like smooth and velvety mouthfeel. I think it has more characteristics of a Schwarzbier, rather than a Dunkel. Whatever it is, it’s definitely a nice beer.

Bottle, 5.4%. Weak banana aroma, a hint of citrus and fart. Hazy yellow colour. Small white head. The flavour has some banana, but not very much. OK spiciness, but the citrus in the finish seems stale.
