Im Gegensatz zur landläufigen Meinung wird der HELLERS Winterbock nicht im Winter, sondern im Frühjahr eingebraut, damit er lange genug in der Lagerung reifen kann. Hierdurch und durch den Zusatz von Röstmalz sowie einem besonderen Aromahopfen, ergibt sich nicht nur eine herrlich dunkle Bierfarbe, sondern ein ganz feines, spezielles Aroma. In die Nase steigen direkt Noten von dunklen Früchten, leichte Schokoladennoten, sowie ein Hauch von Banane. Im Geschmack überzeugt das Bier durch ganz feine Röstaromen, gefolgt von einer tollen fruchtigen Note und einem süßlich, herben Abgang. Ein perfektes Bier um den Winter zu genießen.

Swing top bottle from Der Doppelbock. Deep dark brown color. Malt and apple syrup in the aroma. Sweet, roasty flavor with caramel, wheat, apple syrup and honey. Easy drinker, not unpleasant.

Bottled, thanks Beerhunter111! Hazy dark brown, small head. Cookie dough and red berries up front. Mid sweet with medium-full body and well rounded mouthfeel. Fruity and bready, lightly peppery. Low bitterness. Quite mild.

Bottle [from Euro Swap 2016-2 thanks to beerhunter] @ home. Murky brownish color, no head. Smell and taste malts, slightly banana-ish, slightly yeast, sweetish caramel and a hint of sugar. Average body and carbonation. Meh.

330ml bottle. Opaque, copper-ish dark brown colour with average, thick, creamy, rapidly diminishing, minimally lacing, beige head. Acute, phenolic, wheat malty aroma, a touch of ammonia, honey-soaked straw (if that exists). Taste is sweet, sirupy, fruity, notes of (boiled down) apple and pear, "Grafschafter Birnenschmaus". Meh.

0.33 l bottle from ’CraftBeer-Dealer.com’, best before June 2017. Murky, dark brown with a thin, frothy, quickly diminishing, beige head. Sweetish-malty, slightly spicy and a bit roasty aroma of milk chocolate, caramel, overripe banana, cinnamon and a touch of clove. Sweetish-malty, moderately yeasty-spicy and slightly roasty taste of milk chocolate, caramel, nuts, cinnamon, nutmeg, overripe banana and clove, followed by a short, slightly bitter, rather yeasty-spicy finish. Medium body, quite effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Quite tasty, fits well into the darker seasons, it’s a bit too fizzy though. Not that complex (although it may sound different). I hoped for a bit more to be honest.

brown and cloudy, malty, sour smell. The beer starts malty, Weizen-typical, very nice caramel, nice yeasty clove, banana with milk chocolate. The mainpart is even more aromatic, Nice and smooth. The aftertaste is long, milk chocolate, banana and clove, not too sweet, creamy nice. --> 13/12/13/13

From a bottle poured a copper color with a good amount of head. Light malty flavor with a quick finish.
