Commercial Description:
Aventinus, the Wheat Doppelbock of Bavaria, has always been known to be the most intense and complex wheat beer in the world. This was the case for the past sixty years, but not anymore...
Up until the 1940's, Aventinus was shipped all over Bavaria in containers lacking temperature control. Consequently, the precious drink partially froze during transportation. Unaware that the brew was concentrated by the separation of water from the liquid. People were baffled by this unique version of Aventinus. By chance, the first Aventinus Eisbock was created.
Well aware of this story, Hans Peter Drexler, brewmaster of the Schneider brewery, decided to recreate this classic "mistake" in a modern controlled facility. Thus, the Aventinus Eisbock is reborn sixty years later ... Prost!

Bottle. It pours a clear, deep copper with a beige head. Generous amounts of malt, alcohol and dried fruits in the aroma. Warming alcohol, lots of malt and dried fruits in the flavor as well. Full body. A long warming finish with loads of malt, dried fruits and a good dash of alcohol ends the experience. A truly wonderful bock. Gimme more! (070427)

Copper tinted dark brown, some long-lasting creamy head. Strong sweet nose, some graininess, light clove and banana notes. Somewhat metallic aroma. Strong alcohol character, ethyl and fusel, strong sweetness. Warm and robust alcohol burning. Light fruitiness, a note of bitterness. Strong but not overpowering, fades quickly to a residual sweet malty effect. Lingering roasted character.

Brown and slightly hazy. Hits you at the back of the throat straight away.Thick mouth feel slightly like a medicine.All right as a one off but not to drink regularly or in large quantities.
