About Oktoberfest Märzen
Our Oktoberfest Märzen celebrates the great German brewing tradition. Brewed in spring and lagered through summer, this beer captures the essence of Munich’s famous festival.
Tasting Notes
- Aroma: Fresh baked bread, honey, light toffee
- Taste: Rich Munich malt sweetness balanced by subtle noble hop bitterness
- Finish: Clean and dry, inviting another sip
Brewing Tradition
Märzen means “March beer” - historically brewed in March before the warm summer months when brewing was impossible. We honor this tradition by brewing our batch each spring and cold-lagering for five months.
Malt Forward
Unlike hoppy American styles, Märzen is all about the malt:
- Munich Malt - The star of the show, providing rich bread and honey notes
- Vienna Malt - Adds complexity and light biscuit character
- Melanoidin Malt - Intensifies malt depth
Perfect Pairings
Traditional Oktoberfest fare works beautifully:
- Bratwurst with sauerkraut
- Soft pretzels with mustard
- Roast pork or chicken
- Aged Alpine cheeses
