Oktoberfest is drawing nearer and nearer, and what kind of brewery would we be if we didn't honor the beautiful German lager styles that make this month great, like the Märzen! The glorious amber lager delicately balanced between its malt and hop profile.
That deep amber pour is exactly what I want in a Märzen, and the malty richness carries through every sip without getting heavy. It’s a perfect way to ease into Oktoberfest season, and the finish is clean enough that I’ve already grabbed a second bottle tonight.
Poured this for a friend who's a stickler for German lagers, and he didn't say a word until the glass was empty—the bready malt backbone is exactly what I expect from a Märzen. It's dangerously smooth for 45 days of lagering, and I've already stocked up for September nights.
Opened one to test the waters before Oktoberfest and the malt backbone is seriously well-balanced for a Märzen. Clean finish, no cloying sweetness, just a solid amber that drinks dangerously easy for 45 days of conditioning.
