Weltenburger Kloster Barock Dunkel

Botlle 0.5 L
Clear ruby amber brown , huge handsome fine tan top. Handsome dunkel that is . Good lacing. 4+
Refreshing , clean feel , think meadow, think freshly harvested grain and stack of drying hops ,think at end sugar candy blanket.
Clean malty body , slightly spritzy , light woody touches. Very clean work , no off notes. Lighter dunkel than most that is more visible as you drink .

Bottle. Ruby caramel beer with a nice off-white head. Caramel aroma with some dark malts. Mineral, caramel flavor. Lighter bodied. Minerals linger and are too strong.

Bottle. Dark amber colour with a medium head. Aroma and flavour of caramel, burned malt and plums.

Deep red color with no head. Burnt grain aroma. Odd, almost sour, maple flavor. Kind of a granola-ish finish.

From a 500 ml. euro bottle with a freshness date on the back label. Poured a ruby hued amber with a small foamy pale tan head that settled into a fine bubbly lacing, minimal amount of laced sticking. Aromas of cocoa, caramel, minerals, a subtle nuttiness and a tiny bit herbal. Good moderate carbonation and a softly malty crisp, smooth light-medium bodied mouthfeel. Pleasant tasting, lightly, lightly roasted malts, cocoa, a coffee caramel, a buried nuttiness, a mineral flavor shows up just after the middle of the taste, a herbal hop flavor, not very potent, and a malty finish with some metallic edges. Not a great German dunkel, wouldn’t be one of first five choices if I was in a bar or restaurant, but passable drinkability.

Bottle. Aroma of sweet malt and caramel. These are suplemented with some coffee and hops in the flavor. Rather creamy on the palate and finishes off with a nice taste of moderate sweetness and burnt malt. Really a well made Dunkel.

Pours dark but not opaque in my steeler stein. Smell of fresh beer, what else? Initial taste of perhaps a little hops but that only lasts a second. Flavor moves on to a refreshing dark beer sensation. No bitterness on the finish. Very drinkable. Best dunkle I’ve tasted.

Deep reddish brown with a moderate tan foamy head, no lacing. Yeasty and caramel aroma. Taste is malty-sweet, fruity, a little thin/watery and hoppy-bitter. Decent Dunkel indeed.
