Lammsbräu Dinkel & Dunkel

These are two organic beers from Neumarkter Lammsbräu, which is a leader in "bio" beers in Germany. Results were mixed.

Neumarkter Lammsbräu Dinkel is made from spelt, and it has quite a Hefeweizen flavour at first. That then evolves into a sweet fine fizz and lime zest note and a crackery aftertaste. Not bad.

The second beer, Neumarkter Lammsbräu Dunkel, has an appealing burnt orange colour, but the taste is thin. There's only a hint of bitterness, but it's not got much sweetness either. No outstanding notes. Overall, there's just nothing that exciting in this one.
