Beers similar to Schnaitl Dunkel

Dunkel·Austria·5% ABV·One of 143 Dunkels in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Schnaitl Dunkel's chocolate and roasted character. Roasted malt, bitter chocolate and cocoa lead the way, with hints of coffee and fine hop aromas; the first sip is caramel-like and nicely malty. The finish brings a hop bitterness that is surprising for this type of beer, hardly sweet, fine-bitter and harmonious, carried by pleasant carbonation and a slim body. Chestnut-brown with a reddish glow, brewed with deep-well water and five Austrian specialty malts; on draught and in bottles since 2006.
