Review: Oktoberfest by Great Lakes Brewing Co.

Oktoberfest by Great Lakes Brewing Co.

Brewery: Great Lakes Brewing Co, Cleveland, OH
Beer Style: Oktoberfest
ABV: 6.5%
IBUs: 20

Beer God’s Notes:

A seasonal normal for me. I’m not a big fan of this genre of beer, but I always enjoy Great Lakes Brewing’s version of this fall classic.

I think this has a nice combination of malts that make it easy to drink without being overly malty.

Description

Prost! Our take on this classic German style is a celebration of maltiness— packed with rustic, autumnal flavors to put a little more oomph into your oom-pah-pah.

FLAVOR

Über smooth with vibrant malt flavors and a festive flourish of noble hops (lederhosen not included).

PAIRS WITH

Roast pork loin, potato pancakes, and wiener dog races

WORLD BEER CHAMPIONSHIPS

4-Time Medal Winner (Gold, Silver)
