Tröegs Scratch 13

Formerly brewed at Tröegs Brewing Company
Style: Oktoberfest/Märzen
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania USA

aroma is doughy with some raw malt character. light amber in color and pours with 2 fingers of foam. nice lacing. flavor is a great balance with lots of doughy malt and some spicy and fruity notes from the noble hops. medium bodied. a pleasure to drink at this time of the year.

Golden color with a medium head. Aroma is quite malty and sweet with some light honey, bread, and mild citrus notes. Flavor is quite bready and sweet - lots of honey and some light hops. Solid finish. A very nice Oktoberfest brew!

Poured a faintly hazy amber color with a medium sized, tight and creamy, off white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of caramel malts, toast, nuts, and a light floral hoppiness. Taste of toasty dough, a bit of sweeter caramel, grass, some diactyl (but appropriate) and a dry, yeasty finish. Nice and crisp, not overly sticky like some oktoberfests can be.

Bottle poured into a pint glass produced a finger worth of tan head that trailed off to nothing. All this was on top of a clear copper colored body brew. Aromas of bread, malts and a light hop’s filled my nose. The flavor that was the most pronounced was the sweet malt not to much bitter .Not to the place where I would call it sticky sweet but sweeter than most Octoberfest’s. I also picked up some nuttiness in it as well. Typical larger mouthfeel smooth easy drinking a great representation of the style and another fine brew from Tröegs.

Thanks Jason for sharing. The beer pours to a nice lightly hazy orange copper body with a thin white head. The aroma is autumn leaves and maple buns. The flavor is sweet maple buns and nougat with a light typical o-fest malt. The palate is medium bodied and mouth watering. I thought this was a pretty solid o-fest.

12oz bottle. Pours orange-golden, capped with a small off-white head. Aroma of malt, crisp hops, herbs, and vegetal character. Flavor is malt, grass, mild hops, honey, bread and vegetables. Decent O-fest.

Pours amber with a thin white head. Smells toasty and nutty with some earthy hints. Tastes earthy and caramelly with some spicy hints on the finish. Breaddy mouthfeel.

Pours a mostly translucent golden amber with a medium creamy/bubbly off white head. Aroma of soft pretzels, cereal grains, bready notes and light citrus. Flavor of doughy/bready malt, pretzels, cereal notes, some nuts and citrus.
