könig ludwig weissbier dunkel

Light wheat beer is a pleasure in itself, but we personally enjoy the dark version of the Bavarian classic even more. The dark wheat beer combines the traditional aromas of ripe banana and spicy clove with soft caramel notes, a hint of chocolate and gentle roasted malt - a special treat for all those who love malt.

A decent representative of this category comes from the Kaltenberg Castle Brewery: Their König Ludwig Weissbier Dunkel flows into the glass in an astonishingly light copper gold, but still delivers the full range of noble roasted aromas. A tantalizing scent of toffee, cocoa, toasted grain and oven-fresh banana bread rises from the stately crown of ivory-colored foam. The first sip reveals a powerful body with a creamy mouthfeel. The flavor profile is made up of fully ripe banana, creamy caramel, tenderly melting milk chocolate, a hint of spice and full-bodied roasted malt. The powerful sweetness is cushioned by a beautiful roasted bitterness that lingers on the tongue for a long time and makes you want another bottle.

If you want to serve the König Ludwig Weissbier Dunkel with a suitable dish, the best option is the classic white sausage or young cheese: the creamy sweetness of the wheat and its heavy fruitiness harmonize wonderfully with fresh, slightly ripened cheeses.
