hopIQ found 10 beers with the same nutty and malty character as Ayinger Altbairisch Dunkel. A dark export lager the colour of deep mahogany, showing a golden-brown glint against the light. Five malts, two of them kiln-darkened in the old Bavarian manner, give a warm, nutty aroma with caramel underneath. It drinks full and smooth, malt-forward without turning sweet, and the hopping is kept deliberately light. A long finish brings out cocoa bean and coffee. Produced by a two-mash process at 12.8 degrees Plato. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
