walkürenschluck - eisbock edition

Valkyries are legendary figures from Norse mythology, created by Odin to guide the souls of fallen warriors to Valhalla. They ride majestic steeds across battlefields, choose the bravest to serve the gods, and serve mead in opulent halls. These fascinating creatures represent strength, courage, and divine order – qualities that Wacken Brewery also reflects in itsValkyrie Schnapps .

The Eisbock version of Nordic Strong Ale intensifies the already robust original, resulting in an even stronger, more full-bodied version with a hefty 11.6% ABV. During the freezing process, this elegant derivation develops impressive depth and complexity. In the glass, the Walkürenschluck Eisbock displays a soft fawn color with coppery highlights. The gently cloudy brew is crowned with a creamy, ivory-colored head.

The aroma is rich and complex: delicately melting notes of caramel, dried fruit, honey, and spicy malt rise to the nose. On the palate, these impressions combine to create a full, warm taste experience, supported by a robust bitterness and culminating in a long, velvety finish. The alcohol contributes a rounding, fiery warmth that soothes both body and soul.

Valkyrie's Swallow Eisbock is a majestic homage to Odin's helpers: powerful, rich and unforgettable like the Valkyries themselves.
