Beer Profile
Codename: VW Helles
This Weizenbock presents a robust, malty profile balanced by classic Hefeweizen yeast characteristics. Poured with a deep amber hue, the substantial 8.2% ABV delivers warming notes of dark fruit, plum, and raisin. The aroma features prominent esters of banana and clove, complemented by a rich, bready sweetness. On the palate, the beer is full-bodied and creamy, finishing with a moderate carbonation that lifts the complex malt structure. It offers a strong yet highly drinkable interpretation of the traditional German style.
