🌍 Germany · Festbier · One of 4 Festbiers in hopIQ

The 'golden festive one' — Ott's seasonal Festbier for the October-through-January stretch, particularly present around Christmas. Traditional, full-bodied, and harmonious at 13.4° Stammwürze; more substance than the Edel-Pils, less than the Bock, kept drinkable enough for the stein.
