Weihenstephaner Korbinian

Brewed by Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan
Style: Doppelbock
Freising, Oberbayern, Germany

A brown beer with a beutiful brown head. The aroma is lovely malty with a slight sweetness. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of dry wood and roasted bread. A lovely beer.

(Bottle 50 cl) The word "Bock" doesn’t appear anywhere on the label on this beer from the brewery said to be the oldest in the world - but clearly, that’s what it is. Dark and heavy with lots of malts and sweetness, and not really any bitterness. Pleasant and quite characteristic. 301003.

Sampled draught at Thembi, Maastricht.
Mahogany with brief beige head. Neutral nose. Sweet and malty with syrupy mouthfeel and loads of cramell and toffee in the finish. A solid and warming bock, but not one that offers that little extra.

50 cL bottle. Pours beautiful dark amber, visible, with a dense off-white head. Dried fruity and dark roasted malt aroma. Flavour is smooth chocolate flavoured malty with a slight note of dried fruit and a mild woody note. The barley notes keep lingering into the far finish and provide some warmth with the alcohol. Mild bitterness in the far finish.
