A very good if not great dunkels.Dark and malty, but not in the same manner as the dopplebock of course. Will admit that the entire atmosphere surounding the consumption was an influence as I had just completed a fantastic meal, taken a stroll around the place and was watching as a large table of elders assembled, clinked glasses and said "Prost!" - Situated atop a picturesque hill with accomodations (that I didn’t check into) and bottles and glassware for sale. What more could you want? Oh, beer? They have some good beer and this is one of them.
