About This Beer
Weihenstephaner Vitus Weizenbock is one of the most celebrated wheat bocks in the world, crafted with centuries of knowledge at Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan in Bavaria. Brewed to 7.7% ABV, this golden strong wheat beer offers depth, complexity, and balance in every sip. Unlike lighter Weissbiers, Vitus leans into its bock heritage, delivering a stronger, more robust character while retaining the fruity and spicy qualities that define the wheat beer tradition.

For drinkers exploring craft beer online, Vitus is an essential benchmark of the Weizenbock style. It has won multiple international awards and is praised for its smooth drinkability despite its higher alcohol content.

Tasting Notes

  • Appearance: Hazy golden body with a thick, lasting white head and lively carbonation.

  • Aroma: Intense banana and clove esters with citrus undertones and light malt sweetness.

  • Flavour: Rich malt backbone layered with banana, vanilla, and subtle spice, balanced by gentle hop bitterness and warming alcohol.

  • Mouthfeel: Full-bodied yet smooth, with creamy carbonation and a long, satisfying finish.

About the Brewery
Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan is recognised as the oldest brewery in the world, officially founded in 1040. Situated in Freising, Bavaria, it has been a cornerstone of German brewing culture for nearly a millennium. Today, Weihenstephan continues to innovate while honouring traditional brewing methods, producing an acclaimed range of wheat beers, lagers, and specialty brews. Vitus Weizenbock stands out as a flagship strong wheat beer, representing the pinnacle of their brewing mastery.

Food Pairings
The bold character of Vitus makes it a versatile partner for hearty dishes. Pair it with roasted pork, grilled sausages, or Bavarian classics like schweinebraten. Its fruity and spicy notes also complement strong cheeses, tangy goat cheese, and rich desserts such as apple strudel or bread pudding. For adventurous pairings, try it alongside spicy Asian cuisine, where the beer’s sweetness balances heat.
