Sorcerer’s Temple
Armada Brewing

Poured from a 12 ounce can into a nonic pint glass. A thin, caramel colored head with good lacing. The body of the beer is a dark brown, with reddish hues along the edges. The aroma has notes of dark cocoa, bread in the oven, roasted malts. The first sip exhibits the roasted malts, presumably Munich malts, the traditional one used for a Dunkel. Some cleansing hops bitterness clears the palate for a smooth mouthfeel. This is an excellent Dunkel by Armada.
