Paulaner Original Münchner Dunkel

Brewed by Paulaner Brauerei (Schörghuber)
Style: Dunkel
Munich, Germany

Simple but very, very drinkable. Reddish brown with small tan head. Sweet malts in the nose. No surprise, sweet dark roasted in malts in the taste as well, with caramel, hints of sweet chocolate, hints of sweetened coffee. No hop bitterness, sweet finish. Average mouthfeel. But very enjoyable after a long hot day walking in Singapore.

Draught at Paulaners im Spreebogen, Alt Moabit, Berlin. Only went here because we found Brewbaker to be shut during the day (despite info to the contrary) and this place, which is mentioned in the Germany GBG, is nearby. I was very surprised when I realized later that I had not rated this beer. Sweetish and malty. Touch of milky chocolate in the aroma. Palate is more sticky caramel. Gets a bit cloying. Nice rich, clear red/brown colour.

Bottle 50cl. @ home.
