Forest Brewing Bonfire Dunkel : Appearance, Aroma, and Taste
Forest Brewing Bonfire Dunkel poured out a dark brown, almost black, colour with a thin layer of off-white bubbles on top that popped away to leave a thin layer on top.
The aroma was a mixture of light caramel sweetness, alongside a touch of chocolate, and some faint earthy notes from the hops. As Forest Brewing Bonfire Dunkel warmed up, the malts became the dominant aroma during drinking, with the hops slowly fading into the background.
Forest Brewing Bonfire Dunkel had a medium body to it, with a sticky caramel and light chocolate taste throughout drinking, with a toasted flavour underneath it all. The hops, while not pronounced, did bring a light earthiness during drinking, but they never really threatened to do much more.
Forest Brewing Bonfire Dunkel : The Bottom Line
A solid, if basic, dunkel that won’t excite your taste buds but is well-made.
