Werckmeister	3.2 Josef Dunkel 0,2l from tap. Copper cloudy colour, small white head. Smells earthy, grassy, spices, light toffee. Nice smell. Full body, soft carbonation, slick mouthfeel. Tastes of caramel, spices, earthy, toffee, peppery, some ripe fruits, bit grassy, plums. Finishes lightly bitter with notes of ripe fruits, earthy and caramelly notes.
