A traditional Oktoberfest that we non-traditionally dry hopped with… you guessed it… German Tradition hops! This beer is bready, toasty, and nutty with just a hint of caramel. Dry hopping with Tradition hops provides a fresh spicy floral character. Crisp and refreshing, this beer is perfect for any Fest!

Definitely seems like more of a märzen than a festbier, what with the heavy caramel sweetness and toasted bread notes. Dry-hopping with Noble hops is an…interesting choice, adding quite a vegetal undertone to the floral bitterness on the back end. Not great.

Amber color with thin head. Mild floral and sweet malty aroma. Taste is bitter dry at first with a sweet caramel burst at the finish. Spicy aftertaste.
