Wittinger Bockbier
Wittinger Bockbier is the brewery's spring bock, a strong, bottom-fermented beer of full golden colour brewed at 16.3 °P. Sweet malt sets the tone, with notes of fresh bread, biscuit and light grain, and a gentle warmth from the alcohol. The body is full and rounded, yet the beer drinks easily; a mild hop bitterness of 27 IBU from Hallertauer Herkules adds a faint herbal edge and keeps the sweetness in check through the finish.
