COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
About 150 years ago, this dark style lager was first brewed in Munich, Germany. Our version is fairly dark in color, but don’t be afraid. It is a perfect example that dark beers are not always strong beers. The body is surprisingly mellow, and the alcohol content is a bit lower than most people might think. It has a wonderfully clean and roasty aroma. Hop bitterness levels are kept in line, but is has a noticeable hop flavor. Our Pious Monk Dunkel finishes crisp and clean as a lager should.

AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20

TAR (2349) - Lafayette, Colorado, USA - MAY 19, 2002

Pours with a ring of lace with little stickiness. Fresh sweet corn, toffee, and a fruity malt sweetness hit the nose. Hop fruitiness and candied fruit matches the malt sweetness really well. The finish is roasty and very clean. A very well-made lager, as they are hard to come by. Cheers, Venom!
