Weltenburger Kloster Asam Bock

Brewed by Klosterbrauerei Weltenburg
Style: Doppelbock
Kelheim, Niederbayern, Germany

Bottled. A black coloured beer with a purple/red hue and the tiniest of dusty heads. The aroma has plummy fruits, licquorice, roastiness and vinuous alcohol. The taste is initially sweet and jammy then the smokiness, alcohol and a touch of aniseed come through. A very tasty top quality beer.

Bottled. Deep brown color with a reddish hue. Tan head. Chocolate and coffee aromas. Flavors of dark chocolate, toffee and plums. Port wine aftertaste that lingers just a bit. Very drinkable.

Pours dark brown with very good carbonation which stays throughout. The looks is almost champagne like but obviously a lot darker. The nose consists of chocolate, chocolate raisin, malts, toffee and caramel. The taste has toffee and caramel with abundance. There is less of a wine mouthfeel and more of a Rollos candy mouthfeel with this. I dig the wine feel a little bit more, but this is still a wonderful beer that I will enjoy many times. Really impressive and priced very well too.

From tap,hints of caramel, moderatley malty. A dark hue. Complicated, but beautiful. A wonderful treat for any beer drinker.

Deep ruby/brown color with big bubble tan head. Aroma is of malt, raisins, and dark fruits. Big upfront malt flavor with biscuity finish. Doesn’t finish too sweet though. Dark and chewy.

ruby/mahogany clear color. rocky lasting dark tan head. aroma is sweet malt, raisin, toffee, pumpernickel, cocoa powder. flavor is sweet malt, some cocoa, carbonized sugar. creamy mouthfeel, mild carbonation. dry, salty, slightly bitter dark bread finish. good with sweet whole wheat bisciuts.

Handsome brown in color with hints of burgundy. Large, mostly diminishing light tan head with an alluring aroma of deep fruitiness (raisins, plums, overipen fruits), chocolate and coffee grounds. Chewy malty flavor with hints of fruits, caramel and dark malts. A lovely beer.

Poured a dark brown with reddish hues with a large light tan head that left a lacing on the glass. Aroma is what I would expect from a good doppelbock: sweet grapes and raisins. Flavor has a prominent vinuous character and a strong malt sweetness, with a mild hop kick for balance and a very sublte dryness in the finish. Body is thinner than I expected. Overall a great doppelbock.
