Tall can Very clear for BI, yellow with a white head. The aroma has some sweet malt and spicy hops. Very nice beer although hardly your expected festbier. A bit hoppier than a fest, more in line with one of the crisper German styles. But there's some nice malt sweetness in there and overall it's a tasty beer.

Hoppy toast in a can. Not my favorite Oktoberfest beer this year, but damn close, even if it plays fast and loose with the parameters of the style. Gets the toasted bread, honey, and caramel of the malts right, but adds a fruity hop backbone for the signature Bearded Iris twist. Lemondrops, bubblegum, slight notes of pineapple and dank all meld nicely with the warm marzen malts, leading to a mild bitterness on the back end and hints of yeast in the fade. Nice.

Can from Craft Brewed. Pours a deep gold with a full 2 fingers of foam that lingers. Big catpiss, citrus driven nose, with some caramel as it warms. Good hoppy bite, more citrus, tangerine and caramel honey flavors. Nice peppery, bitterness permeates through the finish. Nice modern take on a festbier.
