129) Home: Aventinus Weizen Eisbok Ale by Private Weissbierbrauerei G. Schneider & Sohn of Germany: **1/2; 12%; this wheat doppelbock, brewed following Reinheitsgebot, was a bit of a surprise; the flavours are very intense and with that nose, I might have mistaken this for a Belgian beer; normally I like my bocks darker (like Growlers used to make and Duggan's, in the same location, has been known to make) but this is superb;
Lent is not yet half over. It sure is tough giving up beer. I would have skipped today but I couldn't let the feast of St. Clinius go by without marking it.
