Benediktiner Weissbräu

Dunkelweizen·Germany·5.4% ABV·One of 76 Dunkelweizens in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Benediktiner Weissbier Dunkel's malty and sweet character. Chestnut-coloured and lightly cloudy, this dark weissbier is fruity and malty, with a caramel-sweet aroma, subtle hints of roasted chestnut and gentle roast notes. The palate is tart and fresh with intense malty sweetness; a delicate hop bitterness brings out sage and wormwood and fades slowly on the finish. Top-fermented, 5.4%, brewed in Lich to the original Benedictine recipe.
