Schneider Aventinus

Draft - Poured a darkish brown/amber in color with a very small off-white head. Little carbonation. Aroma is grainy and slightly sweet with hints of spices, Belgian-style yeastiness and floral hops. Flavor is also slightly sweet with a hefty yeastiness that was enjoyable. Hops not as apparent in the flavor, except at the end. Finish is lingering, slightly bitter... This is an excellent beer.

"Vom fass" heads down the best weizen bock in the world, perhaps the best beer ever!

0.5 L bottle@Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. A fingerthick, creamy sand-colored head upon a near-clear, plain brown colored body. Beautiful, rounded, gently sweet, wheaty malt aroma, added by subtle scent of slightly perfumed fruity and floral hops. Taste has a delicate sweetness from a soft, wheaty malt body. A fine fruitiness underneath. Supersmooth in the mouth. Full body. Fruity finish with an acidic touch. Finally I’ve tasted this gem, a delicious beer.

Copper ruby pour with a great creamy head, too bad it doesn’t leave any lacing. Aroma is full of dark fruit, wheat, sultanas, banana and cloves. Sweet clean malt underneath with notes of caramel. Pretty damn good! Crystal and possibly chocolate malt combine with the lighter wheat to create a very interesting mix of flavours. Dark fruit is once again evident, along with more caramel and some alcohol, which lingers in a very pleasant finish, much like a belgian strong ale. Mouthfeel is a balancing act between the refreshing light body of a weizen the fullness of a rich, malty brew. I wouldn’t have thought of it, but it’s amazing how the light wheat combines with the smooth malt of a doppelbock.

Clovey less banana than glockenspiel - a little flat cola-ish. more assertive, not as good as glockenspiel. Smells great, a litle cinnamony. Feels beautiful in myh mouth, thick and bubbly. Sweet beginning, less sweet flavor.

Bottle. Aromas of bananas mostly with lots of chocolate. Mouthfeel is very creamy thin bubbles delivers the flavors perfectly. The aromas are perfectly delivered in the taste, banana cake with cocoa. For something so readily available this is one of the best.

Love this beer deeply but wanted to make a few comments on the 2004 Vintage that I drank last night. -Rummy flavours softened -Deeper dark chocolate taste -Mouthfeel was very smooth with no trace of acidity. Actually seemed creamier on the tongue. -Finish ended off drier that the regular version with more of a slight herbal rhubard taste and less sugar
