16oz can. Malty, smooth, super sessionable. Great balance, has a pinch more hop depth than is typical for the style, but still fully true to style. Well attenuated. Great stuff.

At Goldfinger Oktoberfest. I was told the recipe does change each year, depending on available hops, so this would count as a new batch, yes? Besides, look at it! Deep amber in a one-litre mug! Pillowy white head. Not much more than a standard lager nose, I'll admit. Taste is full of malts, a little bit of hop flower. Very hearty and filling. German hops are not overly peppery, may be some other European hops here, too.
