Weiherer Zapfenduster
Weiherer is a great brewery with both traditional and craft beer offerings. Zapfenduster is a majestically dark Imperial Stout of 8.5% with a tan rocky head, roast and smoke in the nose, chocolate and coffee in the palate and a lingering, semi-dry, semi-bitter finish.
Leupser Weihnachtsbock
Gradl's everyday dark beer is one of Bavaria's finest and their elusive Weihnachtsbock is a dark Christmas treat with lots of roast and hops to counterbalance the ample malt which brings this potent Bock to 7.2%.
Das Adler-Bräu
Das Adler-Bräu is a contract brewed Schwarzbier by Hetzel in Frauendorf that is a great example of the style and worth seeking out.
Wolf Urtyp Dunkel
Wolf Urtyp Dunkel is one of the best dark beers I've had in Germany, with a dry hoppy palate that has a chewiness which is hard to describe.
Leupser Maibock
Gradl's everyday dark beer is one of Bavaria's finest and their elusive Maibock follows for, with a rich malty palate that dries moreishly in the long bittersweet finish.
Herold Maibock
Herold Maibock is gorgeous big dark Bock, with some fried fruit before the long dry, bittersweet finish.
Reutberger Export Dunkel
Reutberger Export Dunkel is a super drinkable Dunkles with moreish long semi-dry finish.
Schwanen-Bräu Vollbier
Schwanen-Bräu's Vollbier is a dark dry hoppy session beer found more often in Franconia than anywhere in Germany.
Greifla Schwarz
Greifla Schwarz is new release from the brewery in hopes of tapping into Neder's Schwarze Anna market. This one is quite possibly drier and easier to drink and well worth seeking out.
