Pfungstädter St. Nikolaus
Pfungstädter's seasonal Doppelbock arrives each November dark and generous. Deep caramel, dark fruit — dried plum, raisin — and warm roasted undertones build a rich, almost dessert-like sweetness that never tips into cloying. Full-bodied at 6.9%, it's designed for winter evenings and slow contemplation.
