I have no idea what this beer was, not familiar with this style at all. But this was very tasty, I enjoyed it very much and will have to look to see if I can find any others of this style.

Definition:
Dampfbier (literally: steam beer) is a centuries-old style from the region of the Bavarian Forest, the southeastern portion of Bavaria, near the Czech border. It is an all-barley ale, usually deep golden to light amber in color, with a unique feature: It is warm-fermented with Weissbier yeast at a temperature above 70°F (21°C), which gives the beer a slightly phenolic aftertaste. Brewed mostly in the summer, it is medium-bodied, very mildly hopped, and low in effervescence.
Monocacy is resurrecting this nearly extinct style, and its a fine beer. Simple, easy to drink/sessionable, hearty body and flavor with the yeast giving it some slight similarities to a Hefeweisen but no wheat and sweetness is much lower as well. Very impressed and excited that Monocacy is pushing the boundaries on brewing.
