Weihenstephaner Vitus

20140727:
While cooking octopus, meat, shrimp, and onions on the electric griddle, my dad and I shared a bottle of Weihenstephaner Vitus.

I wrote: "Weihenstephaner Vitus. A nice, pleasing lager smell with only a slight bitter taste. The beer is cloudy and yellow in appearance." 12:39PM PT

I also wrote: "The beer has a taste which is different than your average ale. There is a slight bitter aftertaste and the beer didn't go well with the herbs we were eating. Overall, I didn't like it, but I could imagine some people might." 1:21PM PT

WEIHENSTEPHANER

VITUS
Our light-coloured, spicy single-bock, “Vitus” is saturated with fine yeast and a creamy foam. It is a specialty with a round character based on the extra long storage time. The fruity smell of dried apricots joins aromas of citrus, cloves and hints of banana. Full-bodied and sparkling with an effervescent mouthfeel. Thus, the Vitus does not taste like a typical Bock beer but more like a noble, fruity wheat beer. Perfect with red meat, strong cheese and also able to guide desserts. Brewed according to our centuries-old brewing tradition on the Weihenstephan hill.
