Augustus 8 honours Emperor Augustus, the legendary founder of Augusta Vindelicorum, today's Augsburg. Brauhaus Riegele, brewing in this Bavarian city since 1386, crafts this strong wheat bock using their signature two-mash process. The brewery blends Pilsener, wheat and Munich malts to create a full-bodied, fruity beer at 8% ABV. Despite its strength, Augustus 8 drinks with surprising smoothness and balance. A unique fermented yeast strain contributes to the beer's fruity character and luxurious mouthfeel. This is a weizendoppelbock that impresses without showiness: a complex malt foundation that slips down far too easily.
