What is dark beer?

Dark beer is a term used to describe a variety of beer styles that typically have a deep, rich color and complex flavor profile. This type of beer is often brewed using roasted malts, which give it its dark color and characteristic roasted flavors like chocolate, coffee, and caramel. Dark beers can range from lighter-bodied styles like Dunkel and Brown Ales to richer, full-bodied styles like Stouts and Porters. These beers are often enjoyed for their malty sweetness, creamy mouthfeel, and coffee-like bitterness. Some popular examples of dark beer styles include Guinness Stout, Porter, Dunkel, and Baltic Porter.
