591. Guggmann Haus Brewing Co. (Indianapolis, IN) - Biergarten Days

“Traditionally brewed in Bavaraia, the Munich Dunkel offers a complex malt flavor with low bitterness. We’ve used a blend of of German Munich malts giving this beer a rich bready, nutty and roasty character with notes of light floral from German Magnum and Hallertau Mittelfruh hops. With a crisp and balanced smoothness, this beer is a nod to the fall biergarten days of Munich.”

This one is pretty much exactly as advertised, and I suspect that the fact that I can’t come up with anything of my own to say about it means that I am not impressed—and yet I like the beer. What the hell is that? I get the bready, nutty, and roasty, but then I get a hint of vanilla, rather than floral notes. I don’t know much about this style, but I dig this one.
