festbier
Meet the modern king of Oktoberfest, the Festbier. This golden German lager was perfected to be more sessionable than its darker Märzen predecessor, making it the ideal bier for a long day of celebration. We brew ours to be the master of balance: a clean, bready malt body with a hint of floral hops leads to an exceptionally crisp and refreshing finish. It's a style engineered for Gemütlichkeit and best enjoyed by the liter with your community. It is, quite simply, pure celebration in a glass. Prost!

When the Wiesn tents wanted something lighter than Märzen but still worth a full liter, this is what Munich brewed. Gold instead of amber, and built so the sixth stein tastes like the first.
