Objectively speaking, proper German dunkels blow it out of the water in terms of body, flavor and complexity. I even compared it to similarly malty beers like Alaska Amber and Negra feels noticeably more watery and simple by comparison. That said I rarely CRAVE those beers like I do nice Negra Modelo straight from the fridge. It’s like some kind of voodoo where they found the magical formula for just enough malty/sweet body to feel like you’re drinking SOMETHING but still manages to be extremely non-fussy, refreshing, “crushable”, etc.
