Aventinus has been known to be the most intense and complex wheat-doppelbock in the world. This was the case in the past, but not anymore... Recently, Hans-Peter Drexler, brewmaster at G. Schneider & Sohn, heard stories about some extra special Aventinus resulting from partial freezing during a cold winter transport in the 1930's. He decided to recreate this classic "mistake" to further concentrate Aventinus in a modern controlled facility. Thus Aventinus Eisbock was reborn. Prost!

7.9/10 Appearance 7 Aroma 7 Flavor 8.5 Texture 8 Overall 8.5
Aromas are dark malt, raisins, dates, wet grain and clay. Flavors are similar to nose. On the sweet side but with enough bitter and carbonation to balance. Add in a touch of carbonic tart. Really good. A little warmth in the finish.
