Eichbaum Dunkel ~ 50l Keg
Dunkel is Eichbaum’s Schwarzbier – a dark lager brewed to a traditional recipe.
IBU 28
Eichbaum dates from 1679; a Walloon, Jean du Chène established a brewery with its own tavern, which he named Eichbaum – his surname in German (oak tree in English). It is the oldest brewery in Mannheim, and although it has been at different locations since, its headquarters have always been in the city and it is one of the leading breweries in Baden-Württemberg.
A dark beer with an emphasis on a nose of aromatic roasted-malt notes. Initial, light fruity flavours lead into a taste that combines sweet malt and caramel with raisins and chocolate; the finish is tangy and mild with a slight bitterness.
