Two of the biggest events in the world calendar come together - Oktoberfest and Halloween - and we have brewed a big and bold lager to mark the occasion. SHOKTOBERFEST gives a nod to a traditional Marzen-style with its strong, toasty malt character but there is a shocking twist. We have ever-so-slightly amped up the hop profile, fusing American noble hops and German hops to give you a new and old-world experience. A hauntingly good festival lager.
