A.K. Damm
A.K. Damm was launched in 2001 for the company's 125th anniversary and is named after its founder, August Kuentzmann Damm. Unlike the house lager it is an all-malt beer of water, barley malt, hops and yeast, brewed after the Alsatian method at 11.5 °P. It shows a light mahogany hue with toasted glints and a faintly golden head of dense, fine bubbles. Spicy, penetrating aromas lead, sweetness and bitterness sit in balance with a clean acidity and a note of fresh yeast, and toasted accents give the finish its savoury character.
