Impression: This was a great looking beer with a gorgeous head and some hops in the nose. It’s a very balanced Dunkles with a great semi-dry finish. I’d really enjoyed their Kellerbier up at their Keller but this one was ever better.
I'm an American living in Munich. Why? Well, I came for the beer but stayed for the girl. I'm very happily married to a German woman. Of course, the bonus of great beer certainly doesn't hurt. An avid love of hiking and finding new beers has led me to found beerwanderers, an information resource on beer hiking trails in Franconia with an emphasis on Franconian food specialties and the endless variety of amazing beer the region is renowned for. I also just published my first book Beer Hiking Bavaria which features 50 beer hikes in Bavaria.
