A strong yet balanced Märzen. Brewed in September and available from the first Sunday in Advent (10 weeks of storage time!).
The deep golden to copper color comes from a malt that has been lightly roasted especially for this beer. The initial taste is an alcoholic sweetness, which quickly gives way to a distinct hop bitterness. The hops linger and finish with a slight citrus note.
Schönramer Festbier is highly fermented for its type and is particularly warming during the cold Advent season.
