hopIQ found 10 beers with the same full-bodied and toasty character as Weihenstephaner Festbier. Weihenstephan's Festbier is brewed for the folk-festival season and is on sale from July to October. At 13.3 °P original gravity it is stronger than the house Helles and glows deep gold under a compact head. The nose is delicately spicy, with toasty malt and a grassy hop note. On the palate a full, rounded body rests on biscuity pale malt, hops and malt held in balance, and a mild bitterness leads into a soft, slightly sweet finish. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
