Marzen / Oktoberfest

Before refrigeration, beer brewing typically stopped in March (Marz in German) and the beer was stored and drunk throughout the spring and summer months. At the end of the warmer months the remainder of the beer was consumed during Oktoberfest.

Ranging in color from gold to a deep red, the Vienna and Munich malts give the beer a toasty malt sweetness. Noble hops are used, giving a subtle herbal and floral taste and aroma, with mild hop bitterness. ABV can range from 5-7%.

Best served cool, at 46-54 degrees, and in a pint glass or beer mug.

Our Dead Ringer Oktoberfest lager is inspired by old-style Märzen brews customarily enjoyed during Bavaria’s world-famous beer festival. Thanks to an abundance of toasted malt and a lower hop bitterness, this dark reddish brown lager is loaded with sweet, caramel toffee flavors and aromas.
