Beer Of The Week-May 18

I put Flensburger Dunkel in my Top 5 list.

An imported German beer, this red delight has a carnival of flavors but isn't as hoppy as a lot of imports. It has a little bit of a tart taste.

I like beers that don't hang around in your mouth, and despite its sharp, rich taste, Flensburger finishes clean.

It comes in a bottle with one of those old-timey ceramic pop-off caps.

Here's what others have to say about it:

I think it's a nice summer beer that can go well with anything, from grilled burgers to chicken pot pie.

It is rather pricey though. Expect to pay in the $2-$3 range for a single bottle, and you'll have to go to the liquor store to find it, because I've never seen it in a grocery store.

Enjoy!
