Untergäriges helles Bockbier gereift im Amarone Holzfass.

This individual, golden Bockbier interpretation is a unique blending of a strong lager with Mediterranean sweet and bitter aromatics. Its base malt, Weyermann® Eraclea Pilsner Malt, is from barley grown in the province of Friuli- Venezia Giulia in north-eastern Italy. Its pleasantly bitter and mellow hop aromas come from Slovenia to the east. Its red-berry, spice, and barrique flavors come from four months of barrel aging in Amarone-casks that once held Amarone, a robust, dry, red wine from Veneto. The result is a full-bodied beer with a complex bouquet of red wine, woody vanilla, sour cherries, and bitter almonds. On the palate, the beer is bitter-sweet with notes of berries, honey, caramel, clove, and cinnamon.

Pair this beer with game, risotto or almond pastries.
