Bayern Face Plant

Dark brown with very small tan head. Caramel with hint of fruit on the nose. Flavor was fruity with light roast, mostly carmalized sugar. Lighter body with a crisp finish.

Draft. Pours a deep dark brown with light brown head. Some retention and lacing. Nose of tropical fruit, banana and candied caramel malts. The flavor is similar with the fruitiness dominating. A sligt hop twang in the finish before sweetness lingers on the palate. Nice but some of the fruitiness is surprising for the style.

On tap at the PDX Green Dragon. Pours dark brown with a small khaki head. Fruity nose, banana esters, bready caramel malts, fruity hops. Flavors of banana and berries up front, good hopped finish to balance. Estery and crisp towards the finish, bit of a yeasty taste to it. I really enjoyed this one from Bayern.
