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.

Bügelverschlußflasche (333ml, purchased at the Brauerei): Deep amber to black coloured, quickly vanishing off-white head; sweet caramelly and dark-malty nose with distinctive fruity-wheaty traces; moderate sweet flavour, medium bodied; fruity (bananas), caramelly and wheaty finish, followed by a metallic tinge in the aftertaste. Not really convincing..........

33 cL bottle, trade with Koelschtrinker and DerDobbelbock. Pours dark brown with a fully diminished off-white head. Light fruity, dried and malty towards roasted. Flavour is almost wineous, roasted malt with a smoothness of chocolate. Light fruity and alcohol flavour/feel into the finish.7-3-7-4-14=3.5

(33cl swing top bottle, courtesy of Koelschtrinker) Unclear, murky brown colour with a short off-white layer. Sweet, almost vinous and slightly alcoholic nose with a distinctive wheat character and notes of banana. Sweet flavour, medium to full bodied with a very soft carbonation for a wheat beer. Wheaty and banana-fruity taste with traces of caramel; sweetish and minimal sour fruity finish with almost tart phenolic spices at the very end. Okay (19.03.08).
