Special Release: Oktoberfest 2021

Just Jim, T and Jesse review a couple American style Oktoberfest beers and give you a little history lesson on Oktoberfest! PROST!

Oktoberfest Bier
Golden Road & Spaten-Franziskaner-Bräu (Spaten)
Lager - Märzen 5.8% ABV

Golden Road has always been inspired by brewing tradition, California culture, and lifestyle. For years they've celebrated a (Southern) California Oktoberfest at our pubs with their Märzen Oktoberfest beer. And now available in a can. They have collaborated with Spaten on this traditional Marzen recipe, and were blessed to work with Steven Harrington on the packaging design. Steven is an iconic Los Angeles based artist, coincidentally a long time Golden Road drinker. His California-inspired psychedelic-pop art was the perfect way to bring this brand to life and celebrate some beers along the way. The result is a Märzen Oktoberfest bier, displayed as an artform, as this traditional masterpiece from their brewers should be! New World meets Old World. California meets Oktoberfest.

Octoberfest Beer
Bell's Brewery
Amber - Märzen 5.5% ABV

Crafted as a flavorful session beer, Bell's Octoberfest Beer is perfect for a week-long wedding celebration in Germany or the start of the Michigan autumn. As with Bell's Lager Beer, Octoberfest spends a full six weeks maturing in the fermentation vessels. Unlike its cousin, Octoberfest trades in the assertive hop presence for a focus on a light caramel malt note, lending body without too much sweetness.
