Weltenburger Kloster Asam Bock

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

500 mL Bottle. Deep dark amber with a beige rocky head leaving good lacing. The aroma is sweet malt, toffee, treacle, and toasted malt; absolutely inviting and what a dark beer ought to smell like. Full rich sweet flavor of toffee, crystal malt, and brown sugar, although a bit sweet for my liking. This one will do as an aperitif after a fine meal.

Nearly black with a huge tan head. Smells like sweet bread, malt, molasses, and chocolate.Taste starts with dark cherry and plum with a little bit of sweetness fade to chocolate ending with a malty bitterness. Very smooth and enjoyable.Full bodied and complex. Easy to drink even at 7.2% ABV.

Bottle at Funky Buddha/Case and Keg tasting. Nice dark brown/reddish pour wtih a good sized off white head. Aroma is loaded with sweet malt, nuts, bread, and dark fruit. Flavor follows the nose as you dive into dried fruits, sweet malt, honey and nuts. Really nice.

20090208 500ml bottle from State Line. Deep brown color with crazy, thick, dense, beige head of tight foam. Immediate sheeting lace. Waiting and waiting for the head to dissipate so that I can taste the stuff, I enjoy deep nutty aromas, roasted hazelnut, milk duds, creme brulee, light coffee, and mild smokiness. Finally. Creamy texture is coating and lightly bitter to finish. Flavors are rich, lush, nutty, malty, and lightly sweet. More light coffee, then caramel, nutella, and molasses cookie. Ah, this is a nice beer.
