Weizenbock Dornfelder – Bock beer

Beschreibung

More information about Weizenbock Dornfelder In view of Franconia’s magnificent variety of beers, it is often forgotten that there is another beverage tradition in Franconia besides the cult drink beer. The sunny slopes are ideal for growing wine and have ensured that Franconia has been home to a wide variety of beverages for centuries. The traditional brewery Kundmüller from Weiher is located on one such vineyard. The Wagner winery from Staffelbach grows the Dornfelder grape in Weiher and lives in peaceful coexistence with the brewers. In order to unite the two traditional Franconian beverages, the Weiher brewers have teamed up with the Staffelbach winegrowers and created a beer which, after maturing for eight months in wine barrels, produces a wonderful symbiosis of the two drinks. After completion, the good Weiherer Weizenbock is filled into oak barrels in which the Dornfelder wine was previously allowed to mature. The wooden barrel gives the beer an unmistakable character and complements it with a fine, tangy acidity and fruity elegance. The Dornfelder wheat bock aged in wooden barrels flows into the glass in a golden caramel color and is topped with a white head. The copper-colored beer impresses with a strong nose of roasted grain, dried red fruits, ripe banana and finely spiced, red wine-soaked oak. The first sip reveals a wonderful taste of good, dark wine, which combines with spicy vanilla, sweet roasted malt, rum raisins and creamy banana to create an absolute delicacy. An absolutely successful collaboration!
