Bauhaus Brew Labs Knight Fever Munich-style Dunkel

 

Bauhaus Brew Labs Knight Fever Munich-style

5.2% ABV, 21 IBU.

Dark brown, nearly black, mostly opaque, slim tan head of foam.

In the nose: soft, creamy, cocoa and caramel, bit of coffee, too. Classically clean.

In the mouth: small bitterness up front, then all is malty and smooth. Cocoa and coffee appear again on the palate with a bit of nuttiness and a caramel, too. Medium bodied, easy drinkin, full of smooth malty flavors. I like a good dunkel and this is one.

Good day, KNIGHT FEVER Munich-Style Dunkel! The first of four featured beers in our latest Freezebox Mixed Pack, Knight Fever is a dark, malty, Bavarian-style lager with a rich, bready profile and little to no hop bitterness/aroma. Deeply toasty, with a hint of chocolate, this is a decidedly malt-balanced beer that is oh-so drinkable. Finishes clean with a slight sweetness on the palate, so much so that even Sir Ian McKellen would approve. 5.2%, 21 IBU. Find it on tap at Bauhaus and in Freezebox Mixed Packs across the state!

Whatever point or pun that they are trying to make with the name, I don’t get it. More than a Bee Gees reference? But what do German styles have to do with knights? I won’t worry about it.
