When two family-owned breweries united by a love for German brewing join forces, the result is Fest of Both Worlds. This Maifest celebrates craftsmanship, quality, and the joy of perfectly brewed beer. Crafted in collaboration with Warsteiner, brewing since 1753, it showcases classic Pilsner malt, noble hops, and a decoction mash, honoring tradition while brewing for today. Fest of Both Worlds is malty, crisp, and perfectly balanced. We hope you’ll join us in raising a stein. Prost!

On tap at Jack’s Abby, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma has gentle grassy hops, some herbaceous notes, and bready malt. Flavour is fairly herbaceous and malty, with lots of bready malt, sweet grains, and very low-level herbaceous hops. Pleasantly constructed, solid malt base. Good.

Brewery draught, 6/9/23. Clear, blonde-brass with a hint of deep copper. Small, white head, low-to-moderate retention. Soft, understated hop and malt. Some hints of sourdough with gentle herb and pepper. Strong mineral with some biscuit on the finish. Soft and malty, but not too soft with excellent malt depth and attenuation. Just a hint of medium malt with lots of crisp yeast and gently herbal hops. Flawless.

2,800th US rating! Pours a nice light clear gold from a tap. Grassy aroma and flavor, maybe a bit more like hay, some noble hop notes but with a nice fruitiness. Good beer.

I’ve always thought festbiers fit spring. Pretty colored golden orange and puffy white head. Nose is faint cracker and caramel. Tastes of floral, caramel, water crackers, some biscuit. Crisp. Pleasant.
