Oktoberfest Partial Mash 5 Gallon

Traditionally brewed during spring months and allowed to lager throughout the summer to be ready for the harvest festivals, Oktoberfest beers have become a staple of beer drinkers across the globe looking for a refreshing malt forward beer with slight notes of noble hops. Our Oktoberfest is a pale amber color that boasts a complex and rich malt character and a very smooth body. It's a great brew to break tradition with and enjoy year round! Note: This brew uses a Lager yeast and requires a controlled, cold fermentation. See our Lagering article for more information.
