Starköl Oak Aged

Описание

After the beer trip of the "8 glorious 7" to Denmark (2012) it was decided to brew a "StarkÖL". Thus, in the Camba Bavaria and in the Hofstetten brewery, one brew each of dark Bock was brewed, which were hopped very strongly with the American hop varieties Chinook and Centennial. After the two brews were combined, the beer was frozen at Hofstetten to produce a strong Ice bock. The "Oak Aged" version was then aged for several more months in American Bourbon barrels.The result is an extremely exciting, complex Ice bock. The aroma is dominated by strong vanilla aromas, accompanied by subtle hop tones reminiscent of citrus fruits. The tart initial taste harmonizes wonderfully with the intense aromas from the bourbon barrel. Full-bodied, slightly sweet impressions follow - the strong malt body plays all facets before the stout fades out in a warming calm.
