The legendary brewing masters at Brauhaus Riegele bring pure Bavarian indulgence with their award-winning Augustus 8, a high-octane Weizen Doppelbock named in honour of Augsburg’s founder. Pouring a deep, hazy chestnut-amber with a rich, pillowy off-white foam head, this potent dark wheat beer fills the air with luxurious aromas of ripe banana, dark plum, spiced clove, sweet raisin, and warm dark chocolate. On the palate, a velvety, full-bodied malt bill delivers rich layers of banana bread, caramel, and subtle nutmeg spice, effortlessly supported by a gentle, warming alcohol touch. A vibrant effervescence lifts the heavy malt density, keeping the finish surprisingly smooth and complex. Decadent, traditional, and deeply satisfying, it’s a masterclass in German brewing engineered for cold nights, hearty dinners, and slow, thoughtful sipping.
