Smooth, bready malt character, with clean earthy bitterness. Finishes crisp and dry. Crushable. Brewed with 100% German malt and hops. Worthy of your best lederhosen and your finest stein.

Pounder can for almost 4 bucks at chalet in north lima. A little over the usual price I usually pay. But I must say, after drinking this; it was worth it! Pour is maybe a little lighter than most fest brews, it lacks that light brown tint. Nice clean looking silky head about an inch that fades to, and holds at 1/2 inch. Maybe just a tad of that approachable marzen nose, a mix of sweet toasted bread, roasted grain, warm pretzels, just barely. Flavor is unexpectedly light; friendly and easy, good co2, can't find any negative effects on the commencement. Seriously, its so well behaved and I can't find any negative characters, that I find in other domestic fest beers. Maybe because the alky content is a point or two below most fest beers? Not sure. Smooth, kind, affable, amiable, cordial, and genial. Yep, I'm gonnah say this is right up there with some of the best fests I've had like Climax Hoffman, Hacker-Pschorr Oktoberfest, Voodoo Brewing James Brown and Holy Moley Oktoberfest. Nice job KCBC!

Draught @ Malt & Mold. Faintly cloudy amber with large foamy light beige head, faint caramel malt aroma, high carbonation, mildly bitter caramel malt taste, thin body, longish bitter caramel finish. A nice Marzen.

At the source: pours amber with a white head. Aroma is light caramel, malty. Taste is lightly sweet. Quite balances and sessionable. Nice.
