Dark specialties were being made in Bavaria long before the advent of pale specialties. Over the years, Hofbrau Dunkel lost nothing of its popularity. With the rich flavour, it remains a refreshing beverage, suitable for all occasions. A traditional Munich deliciousness.

Really nice color and smell, which has a nice malt profile. Taste wise, nothing wrong with it at all. Great dark lager.

Dark foamy goodness. Poured from bottle, settle comfortably into burnt brown froth. Roasty, dark stone fruit aroma. Molasses and malt tickle the tastebuds. Fullish feel. Good ole reliable.

Always in the fridge. Crisp and clean. A game day standard for me.

Very nice color and roasty, light malty caramel but pretty light overall flavor.
It's a beer with a little more body than most but which you could still drink after a lawn mowing session -- Not that I would, because there are better beers for that.

Picked it up for 50 Taiwan dollars, ($1.50 USD) on discount. It’s hard to find good beer here, and this one really hits the spot. It’s dark, but not burnt tasting, very well balanced. Not too sweet, just the right balance of hops and malts. Drinks smooth, and carbonation isn’t too strong.

The pour is umber brown with a moderate amount of carbonation. The taste is roasted malt, & a touch of caramel sweetness. Cheers! B
