Blended Oxtoberfest Review


Brewers Notes:
Blended Oxtoberfest will be a varied blend of barrel-aged and fresh Oxtoberfest every year. 2011/2012: Barrel: Riesling/Time: 12 months Additions: mixed bretts, lactobacillus # of bottles: 398

the Bottle Forager's Notes:
Pours a rusty orange brown with a puffy three fingers of foam. Aromas are a little tart fruit, smoked malts, oak and a hint of herbal mint. On the palate its complex but nicely balanced with smokey malts, peat and some earthy rustic wood mixing with bright tart fruit and toasted vanilla notes. Quite an interesting beer thats different than anything Ive ever drank... bridges the gap between german sours and a traditional marzen. Yum !

Bottles are still available at the brewery... $20 ea and remember the new tasting room hours...
Wed-Fri 2pm-7pm

Go find some for yourself and your friends.

Cheers
