Dunkel·Denmark·5% ABV·One of 148 Dunkels in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Hancock Black Lager's caramel and full-bodied character. Dark copper in the glass, with a caramel sweetness up front, a very pleasant bitterness behind it and a fuller body than a pilsner. Lager malt instead of pilsner malt gives the darker colour; this is Hancock's take on what Germans would name a Dunkelbier. Like Hancock's other dark beers it is brewed with lager malt, and it matures for 90 days at low temperature.
