Made with imported 2 row Vienna and Munich German malts and whole flower German hops. Subtly sweet with a delicate malt nose, our Festbier gains its impressive body from our use of all imported German malts and decoction brewing process.

Bottle. A marzen beer that is only average. I love this style but this is not one of the better examples of this.

Pours clear brown with a thick white head. Aroma of sweet malt and light herbs. Taste has caramel, raisin, dark nutty malt, very clearly well hopped but gives off the essence of an intense malt body. Palate has malt residuals, nutty note on the nose. Great Marzen.

Pours a clear reddish amber color with a small tight beige head and good retention. Very good lacing. Caramel malts aroma. Sweet lager with strong caramel flavor. Smooth and clean. Best Victory brew I've had.
