Year of New Beer: Clawhammer Oktoberfest, Highland Brewing (NC)

Written By: Dion on 09/22/2014

Lightly toasted bread, muted caramel, and the traditional hop aroma of the German Märzens. On the tongue, the lager sweetness elevates, slightly floral in nature, but this is held in check by a spicy hop bite that provides a crisp balance. Oktoberfests in general aren't high on my list, but this one is really pretty good.
