Der Weisse Bock
Weizenbock
ABV: 8.5% IBU: Unknown |
A wonderful example of the style, this clear, amber German weizenbock starts off with a massive tan, foamy head. Its aroma is gentle; sweet cherry and burnt sugar scents mix with mild alcohol notes. The flavor begins with powerful toffee and plum on the tongue, before relaxing into delicate wheat and clove notes. This beer is a sipper: It’s as big in body as it is in alcohol, with a heavy draw through the throat and chest. Its toffee and fruit flavors last well past the beer’s dry finish. |
