Hofmühl Dunkel
Brewery: Hofmühl
Town: Eichstätt
Style: Dunkel
Color: mahogany
Head: off-white, rocky
Nose: malty, roasty, grainy
Body: medium
Palate: malty, grainy, slight roast
Finish: clean, semi-dry, semi-bitter
Served: from a bottle bought in Eichstätt
Impression: Glad I picked up a bottle of this Dunkel as it seems drier, perhaps only because its being drunk first off compared to the tap version I’d had closer to the end of the tasting session. The graininess seems more subdued with perhaps more roast. Best of all, the finish is cleaner with a bit more bitterness. I’d buy it again.

I'm an American living in Munich and Bamberg. 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 published my first book Beer Hiking Bavaria which features 50 beer hikes in Bavaria and lead beer hiking experiences for those who love beer & nature. View all posts by beerwanderers
