This is the 25th of 30 filings we hold from Elch-Brau. It is one of 13 dark lager / dunkel labels approved in June 2026. It cleared 4 days after it was filed. It was brewed under contract — LIME VENTURES, INC. holds the permit, which is ordinary in the register and easy to miss on a shelf. It is an imported label, filed for US distribution.
From the label“Beer name is 'Dunkel' — a German dark lager style. The label also prints 'Dark Ale' as the TTB regulatory class descriptor, but 'Dunkel' as a German style word is explicit_label-level evidence for dark_lager per rule 11. Volume is 5.28 GAL (keg). Imported by Lime Ventures, Concord CA; produced and packaged by Elch-Brau, Thuisbrunn, Germany — geography conflict (Germany vs. CA importer) and 'for' importer relationship = contract.”
