Jacobator - Doppelbock

Bock and other strong beers have their origins in the monastery breweries: traditionally, they were produced during Lent so that the monks, who had to do without bread and meat, could at least feast on nutritious beer The full-bodied barley juice was intended to give them strength for prayer and daily work and keep the men of God happy during this barren time Today, we fast on sweets at best, but the tradition of bock beer has remained with us

The Jacobator from the Jacob family brewery, for example, is a delicious part of this tradition Due to its impressive 7.5% alcohol content, the wheat beer double bock should only be enjoyed on an empty stomach if you have no further plans for the day However, the dark beer does not only delight with its revolutions The hazelnut-brown specialty with a creamy, ivory-coloured head attracts with its magnificent appearance and a scent that is made up of dark chocolate, cloves, dried fruits, spices, spices and a hint of sugar, clove, dried fruit and strongly roasted malt. The taste follows the same direction and delights with a full-bodied bouquet of creamy caramel, softly melting chocolate, grainy cereals and candied red fruits, orange zest, spicy hops and dark rye bread This doppelbock skillfully balances velvety sweetness, hoppy tartness, wintry spiciness and good roasted bitterness and is a quaffable treat for cold, uncomfortable winter days
