German Beer and Breweries

Weihenstephaner Vitus

According to their website, Weihenstephan have been brewing since 1040:

 

“….brewed on the Weihenstephan hill in Freising. Behind the historic walls of our brewery, hides modern technology which relies on a current scientific brewing process. This innovative strength and nearly a thousand years of brewing experience creates premium beers of the highest quality.”

 

Weihenstephaner Vitus is a light coloured spicy single bock saturated with fine yeast and a creamy foam. Full bodied and sparkling with an effervescent mouthfeel, the fruity apricot aroma joins citrus, cloves and light banana notes.   A speciality beer with a round character due to the extra long storage time in our monastery cellars.

This isn’t your typical bock beer, more like a fruity wheat beer. Pairs perfectly with red meats and strong cheeses.
