The bright, golden color of our Winterfestbier brightens the dark depths of winter. A lengthy maturation period gives this beer its full-bodied flavor. Offered seasonally, this beer is brewed with a different, unique hop variety each time.

0,5 L on draft at the Bräustüberl. Pour a clear, yellow color, with a big, bubbly, white head. The nose is smooth caramel, mild pine, some herbal notes, and mild cinnamon. Sweet and sugary, with a light, crisp bitterness. Light body, with a crisp, malty mouthfeel. This is a sharp, easy lager.

Many thanks to Martin for this bottle! Golden in the glass. The beer starts mild and fresh. Grainy with a nice mild smooth fruity-malty body. Easy to drink with a nice depth, malty with grainy parts, quite dry and easy to drink with a grainy and not too bitter finish!

Clear pale blond colour with fluffy head. Aroma has some light floral notes. Otherwise it’s just a plain malty lager-esque beer. Winter?

Bottle at home. Clear golen pour with a white head. Notes of grains, light fruit, light metallic bitterness, malt sugars. Simple but not bad.

Clear medium golden colour, tall frothy white head, receding slowly, fair lacing. Aroma malts, grain, grass, light caramel. Taste medium sweet and light bitter, malty, grainy, light toffee. Smooth malty sweetbitter aftertaste, light spicy bite in the finish. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation, nothing spectacular but well-made and solid Märzen.

Bottle (Systembolaget Garching): Golden, clear, mid-sized loose and slowly collapsing white head; mild to moderate sweetish-grainy nose with a touch of honey, a small amount of herbal hops; mild to moderate sweet-bitter flavour, almost medium bodied, pretty soft; slightly lingering, smooth sweet-bitter finish. Nothing wrong with it, just a quite tame Märzen...
