Schultenbräu Zwaar Bier is a strong lager brewed by Swinkels Family Brewers in Lieshout, Netherlands, and sold exclusively at ALDI. At 8% ABV, it delivers a robust, malt-forward experience.

The aroma is dominated by cereal malt and sweet notes, with faint grassy hop character in the background. On the palate, sweetness and malt take centre stage, with a syrupy texture and pronounced alcohol warmth that subdues other flavours. The finish is dry and warming.

Despite its strength, the beer drinks lighter than its ABV suggests. This is a straightforward strong lager for those who appreciate malty, full-bodied styles.
