Commercial Description:
Roll out a barell of our Oktoberfest LAger which features Weyermann Munich malt, imported German Perle hops for bittering, and Gernman Hallertau hops which are prized for their delicate aroma. A long, slow cold storage softens the malt flavors, and makes this this only beer that should pass your lips when you hear the call of the Oom-pah band. Try it with Zweibel Schnitzel Bayrische Grillhaxe or with a simple soft pretzel and hot mustard. Serve at 6 degrees celcius. Unpasturized and unfiltered.

Bottle from Piscator34(Thanks!) Lighter clear copper pour, little carbonation and a good sweet malty aroma. Flavor is initially a little nutty/malty, then some hops and very light and dry on the finish. Not bad, but not one that jumped out as amazing.

Pours light brown with foaming lacey head, that leaves some drops of lace. Some smokey aroma, and it’s in the taste,along with a nice hop bitterness, fine carbonation. Average mouthfeel, very drinkable. Decent for the style. Satisying though somewhat drying finish. Thanks Piscator34.

A hazzy reddish brown lager with a thin light moka head. A grassy wet mash aroma, very green, pungeant. In mouth, a roasted malt with lots of burned bitterness, very nutty, with light chocolate notes. Medium bodied. Tasted with Probstk, May 2007. Thanks to Piscator for the trade.

half pints oktoberfest, 22 oz bomber, 22 IBU, 6.2%. Poured into a Samuel Adams Oktoberfest stein. Reddish brown body, fairly opaque, lovely, cream-toned head. Sweet aromatics, fresh, malty, herbal, slightly vegetal. Beautiful stuff. Rich and full in the mouth, with hefty flavor. Solid malt, with discernible hop bitterness. Light nut flavor, with bright fruit feel shining in. Very tasty, gets better as we go. Smooth and drinkable. Very nice.

660ml bottle.
Pours a hazy amber brown with a fine white head. Leaves a little bit of lacing. Smells nutty with roasted malts, caramel, and some citrus and floral hops. In the mouth it’s medium-thin with a smooth and soft carbonation. Flavour starts off malty sweet with some biscuit and honey. finishes with a citrusy bitter hop taste.

Appearance- hazy chestnut with a frothy white head. Nose- mostly bready malts with some hop spice. Tate- doughy, bready malts and grains. Some fall spices are noticable as well, along with a tangy hoppy bite. Finish is dry and earthly. Carbonation is spot on and drinkability is very high. A delicious seasonal from HP. Great stuff!
