One of the two beers brewed at the monastery (the other one is the Barock Dunkel). The Weltenburger Asam Bock owes its name to the brilliant, baroque painter and master builder Cosmas Damian Asam. The malt-emphasized goat exudes light roasted aromas that give a hint of coffee. Friends and connoisseurs particularly appreciate it for its strong, sweet, very aromatic and persistent taste. With its 6.9% alcohol content, it is the strongest barley juice from the Weltenburg family.

Multiple bottles over the years. Clear dark ruby body with a beige head. Lively carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of raisin, mashed strawberry, liquorice, Marmite and toffee. Flavour of burnt sugar, Calpol and boiled blackcurrant sweets. Medium to full body with a slick and slightly chewy mouthfeel. Light fizz. Sweet and delicious. One of the best doppelbocks I’ve tried.

Backlog July 2008. Clear, deep amber body under a fine tan head. Aroma has dark malt, dry fruit, caramel and some chocolate. Taste is sweet malt, caramel, chocolate, dry fruit and balanced moderate bitterness. Fine balanced body with a fine aftertaste. Nice, tasty and elegant beer.

Bottle. Wonderful brown color with a light tan head. Aroma was fruit cake, with hints of herbs, nuts and toast. Flavor was extremely complex with dried fruit and touches of licorice, caramel and a malty,slightly sweet aftertaste. Really great beer.

very dark pour, small beige head.
Aroma is super malty, this is like a malt bomb. Bready, and chewy, like a wonderful fresh loaf of bread. THe flavour is a malt explosion, again, very reminiscent of a big fresh chewy loaf of german bready, a wodnerul sipping treat, i love it!

Bottle from Lekkerbier, St. Nicolaasga. Aroma is brown and dark malt with caramel, roast, some nuts, notes of dried fruits, raisins, and a touch of cocoa. Flavour is proudly bittersweet. Body is slightly above medium. This is how you make a Doppelbock.

Аромат сладкий по большей части,весьма много дрожжей, карамельный солод, ощущается патока, немного вязкий запах хлеба. Цвет темно-карамельный, но просвет есть, пенка средняя, но стойкая. Вкус немного разочаровал. Карбонизация очень слабая, много дрожжей и карамели, легкие пряные нотки. При глотке ощущается вязкость и средняя но продолжительная горчинка. Легкие нотки алкоголя и карамели с карамельным солодом. Но в целом обычное по стилю пиво, не понял такие высокие рейтинги.
