What Our Editors Thought
“Deep toasted bread-crust notes and a touch of chestnut—bold and imposing aroma. Lighter, almost tropical fruit–pastry malt notes in the flavor offer compelling contrast.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Moderately low biscuity and bready notes start off the aroma, with light grassy notes chiming in; very soft floral hops flit through. Lots of biscuit, pie crust, and lightly toasted bread in the flavor. A smooth, light, balancing Noble-hop character brings hints of white pepper and background grass. Mild bitterness.”
What the Brewers Say
“Classic Oktoberfest.”
