Cigar City Oktoberfest

◎ Aussehen

Deep golden amber with excellent clarity and bright light transmission. A generous, off-white head forms quickly and maintains fine lacing down the glass. Carbonation is moderate and even, creating a refined visual presentation typical of a well-executed lager.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced bread crust and toasted grain notes from six German malts, anchored by Munich malt's distinctive richness. Noble Hallertauer Mittelfrüh hops emerge subtly underneath, offering restrained herbal and floral character without dominance. Clean Bavarian lager yeast rounds the profile, allowing malt complexity to remain in the foreground.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and malty with immediate bread and grain presence. Mid-palate develops subtle toasted and light caramel undertones, while noble hops provide measured bittering without sharp edges—IBU 22 keeps the beer balanced and food-friendly. The finish turns dry and clean, shedding sweetness while maintaining mineral complexity.

◑ Abgang

Medium-length dry finish with lingering grain and a whisper of herbal hop recall. The aftertaste remains clean and thirst-quenching, with no residual sweetness or harsh bitterness.
