Name: G. Schneider & Sohn Aventinus
Origin: Kelheim, Germany
Style: Wheat Ale/Dopplebock
Appearance: It is a light brown, nearly rust color. The ale is cloudy and pours a long lasting, medium sized head of foam.
Taste: It smells strongly of herbs, spices and something that reminds me of incense. A very bold tasting ale, with strong flavors of herbs and spices. There is a twang of incense like taste hidden in the beer as well. It finishes with a spicy (maybe cinnamon or nutmeg), dark chocolate flavor.
Mouth Feel: A very soft and creamy ale. It is very easy to drink.
Final Thoughts (2 out of 5): The strong herb like flavors and its richness make this beer overwhelming for my palette. The chocolatey after taste was enjoyable as well as it was easy on the mouth to drink. Over all I found this beer difficult to enjoy thoroughly.
