- Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 24
- Serving Temperature: 40-45° F
Frankenmuth Dark is a traditional Dark German Lager and is brewed with a combination of 6-row pale, Munich, Cara-60, and Black patent malts. Both Cluster and Perle hops are used up front for their bittering contributions and Perle hops are added again near the end of the boil as well to give the beer its hop aromatic characteristics. Another German lager yeast strain is used in this full-bodied, Munich style dark lager. Frankenmuth’s Dark is lagered for over a month to produce a smooth, clean beer.
Immediately note a malty and slightly roasted nose. Look for excellent head retention in this dark brown, clear, medium-to-full-bodied beer. We found this German Dark Lager to have a complex malt profile with some chocolate malt taste evident and a pleasant roasted malt finish. Overall, a very flavorful, well balanced and slightly robust dark lager.
