Weizenbock 9 º 40 IBU

Brouwerij de Molen

This indulgent Weizenbock presents a rich sensory tapestry, marrying traditional German wheat beer depth with dessert-like complexity. The profile is anchored by a high malty richness, evoking bready Munich malt character and dark fruit. Bold aromas of ripe banana and clove are seamlessly integrated with the addition of sweet vanilla and decadent chocolate, reflecting its namesake dessert. The palate is semi-sweet and full-bodied, offering layers of toasted grain and a subtle, intriguing smokiness that complements the spicy yeast phenols. At 9% ABV, it concludes with a smooth, lingering warmth and a creamy texture that highlights its sophisticated, malt-forward balance.

Appearance. Dark ruby-brown (approximately 22-25 SRM) with a very thick, moussy, and long-lasting light tan head. Significant haze is present from the high wheat content and yeast suspension.

Aroma. High intensity with significant bready and toasty malt richness. Pronounced banana esters and moderate clove phenols are joined by clear, sweet vanilla accents and a rich milk chocolate character. Low dark fruit notes like plum or raisin are present, with a very faint hint of smoke.

Taste. Rich, bready malt and grainy wheat flavors lead into a complex mid-palate of banana, vanilla, and chocolate. Low hop bitterness allows the malt sweetness to persist, though the finish remains balanced rather than cloying. Light spicy phenols and a touch of smoke add depth. Fermentation character is clean but expressive, with a well-integrated alcohol presence.

Mouthfeel. Full body with a soft, creamy, and fluffy texture. Carbonation is moderate to high, providing a lift against the richness. Noticeable but smooth alcohol warmth is present without being solventy.
