Beers similar to Festbier

Festbier·United Kingdom·5.2% ABV·One of 85 Festbiers in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Festbier's malty and bready character. Vibrant citrus and lemongrass open up, then soften into bready malt and honey, with a clean bitterness and a subtle, spicy finish. Side fact: this one was brewed together with Green Cheek Beer Co., and the hops make a small world tour: Fuggles from England, Crystal from America, Tettnang from Germany. An almost authentic German lager, with a Yorkshire accent.
