Our Märzen has light nutty, bready notes on the nose, with punchy malt notes that waver between sweet and dry and a burst of earthy hops in the finish. The light toasted malt is reminiscent of an amber ale, but the clean finish and purity quickly identify it as a German-style lager. In the end, there's a hint of floral hops for a unique twist to a classic amber with a medium-to-full body.

Craft Beer & Brewing

“Pleasant, brightly sweet malt note sings out front… Each sip has the same disciplined simplicity of bruschetta, herbal hop flavor, and crisp clean finish”

Reviewed June 2021

Bavarian law once banned summer brewing, so brewers made a stronger bier in March and buried it in ice caves until the weather turned. By September the cellars had to be emptied. Oktoberfest is just what that looked like.
