Good People Oktoberfest

Tap to rate

Amber to copper and crystal clear under a bright white head, this Oktoberfest brings bready, toasty malt with caramel and cereal-grain notes. Mild hops add herbal, citrus, spice and earth, and the whole is very balanced. German malts and German hops go into the brew, and a traditional lager yeast ferments it cold and clean.
