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. This is probably my most favorite Oktoberfest beer this season. It is not overpowering, and relatively balanced. The malts aren’t too overpowering, and the hop balance is just about right. Very nice subtle bitter finish.

Bouquet is oak, cherry, and caramel. It looks similar to ice tea with its clear, diluted red amber color. Malt with an ideal level of sourness. Very faint hop finish. It’s enjoyable, but I became less enamored with it the more I drank. It warms poorly and probably should only be drunk cold.

Bottle. Strong grainy malt and caramel aroma. Copper color with small head. Caramel and strong barley malt flavor with a mild hops finish. A very nice festbier - I really like the flavor of the malt in this beer, and it has much more body than most beers in this style.

A hazy lager, with orange amber colour and a light thin off white head. A sweet caramel aroma, with light fruity esters. In mouth, a lightly spiced sweet nutty malt, bready, with faint hopping. A quaffable beer. Bought in the Fall 2006.

A little darker than yer typical pale yellow american beer. No haze, transparent. Less than average carbonation. Slight bitter hops on the flavor and in the finish, probably not to style. Smooth, as advertised. Moonglow is better.
