Autumn is an insanely popular season for beer releases. Perhaps the most famous fall beer style is the Märzenbier (more commonly known as “Festbier”). To commemorate Oktoberfest, we offer our take on this classic German style. With origins dating back to 16th century Bavaria, the original Märzen style was touted as “dark brown, full-bodied, and bitter.” Boasting a moderate hop presence, Scratch #205 - Fest Lager displays a hint of bitterness while still maintaining the classic malt character you’ve come to expect from a traditional German Festbier. Prost! 5.6% ABV and 29 IBU. Availability: cases, six packs, single bottles, draft & growler fills.
