For our Springfest event we invited our good friends from Lost & Grounded to come and brew a Märzen style Festbier with us. Built on Weyermann malt from Bamberg and designed for richness,depth, and drinkability. It has quietly been lagering away for months and is now ever so close to being ready to pour. Perfect for an Oktoberfest stein!

Panda thanks to Cloin. Clear deep gold beer, small bubbly off white that doesn't last. Smooth palate, decent fine carbonation on the back end. Soft malts, floral German style, nutty - tangy as well. Soft cooling pine. A little ripe citrus. Smooth finish. Not bad.
