Oktoberfest Märzen
A German-style lager brewed for the autumn, amber in the glass beneath a firm off-white head. Toasted bread and caramel malt lead the aroma, with a light honeyed sweetness behind them. The palate stays malt-forward and rounded, the toast carrying through without tipping into roast, and a hint of herbal hop bitterness trims the sweetness at the close. The body is medium, the finish clean and of moderate length.
