Slightly oxidized but Very tasty Dunkel. It had a slight roast note that I enjoyed.

I wish I could try this fresh at Ayinger. It rarely tastes the same here twice in a row, but that likely an issue of age.

Wish they sold it on cans, they seem to stay fresh longer.

Unfortunately I think in Germany cans are seen as a "cheap beer" thing, but who knows. It's only quite recently that the canning technology has improved dramatically in terms of the amount of oxygen in the package.

I have a theory that the German flag was designed to pay homage to dunkel. Many dunkel, if you have a glass with a thick bottom, when held in the right light, will be black on top, red, then yellow/amber on the bottom.
