Powerful marzen bourbon barrel flavor BUT, not really traditional but I like the try

Nice amber color, light Marzen nose. Bubbly on the tongue, with a late, light alcohol burn. I don't notice the bourbon barrel taste, it must just mellow out the flavor. A nice Marzen. A decent seasonal, not something I would otherwise reach for.

Finally done painting the shed. Now to sit here and watch the squirrels. This beer isn’t bad at all. I actually quite enjoy the aroma. Having said that, this just kind of demonstrates that not all beers are better or require time in a bourbon barrel.

Really hides the 10%. Figured it would end up more along the lines of a eisbock but still clearly an Oktoberfest.

As advertised... A nice marzen with a rich and boozy bourbon finish. A great twist on a classic!

Bourbon imperial Oktoberfest? I didn't know that there was such a thing, but I dig it!

Super boozy for a 10% beer. Good sweet flavor. You don't want to have plans afterwards if you are looking to drink two.

Octoberfest Beer School. What the hell is this? Why would you do what you did? You ruined decent Octoberfest beer with a bourbon barrel you nimrods.

10 % abv, 9 months in Bourbon Barrels. Very interesting twist on the Octoberfest style. Tasty! #beerschool @thebeertrappe #beerschoolnevergraduate

Very smooth. Bourbon doesn’t overpower the marzen so you get the malt. Good caramel notes. Great beer.

I get the bourbon taste but it doesn’t overwhelm completely. love a beer that takes over 9 months to brew. The care and tears come through in amplified color. Märzen flavor takes over as the beer warms, one and done but we’ll worth the $7.25 in the kiddie

Not going to lie that barrel is absolute magic... this is every bit of a solid Marzen with race gas and a super charger slapped on top, deep notes of caramel, brown sugar and firewood, without a doubt one of the best Marzens I've had to date

The barrel aging makes a huge difference - I only wish I had more of this.

This is a first for me - a bourbon barrel aged Marzen style Oktoberfest. Malty and very smooth with a hint of caramel. Finishes with a slightly boozy kick of bourbon - not overpowering. Very nice!

Wow, Founders has a winner! Nice head and copper color. You really pick up the bourbon both in the aroma and taste. While not a “street legal” Märzen the bouton barrels are a great touch.

Intense bourbon aroma. Super smooth, mile deep malt. Highest octane Märzen to date (The Kaiser was the previous high water mark, haven’t seen that in a long time)! Anyway, a interesting domestic version. Too bad the “real” Löwenbräu isn’t available.

Not liking it. Too dark, bitter smokyish but then Im neither an IPA nor bourbon drinker. More of a rum and pilsner file. Glad I tried it. Better beer than seltzer.

Has a nice hearty bread and oaky aroma. Has a nice woody and oak flavor with hearty bread flavor and a splash of salt. Doesn't taste like 10% drinks smooth.

Oktoberfest beer. The ultimate Marzen, soaked in bourbon flavor and has that classic Oktoberfest taste, it should be paired with a soft pretzel. Thumbs up.

10% BBA Imperial German-style Marzen Starting Oktoberfest off with the Ultimate. The barrel overrides the Marzen but that’s OK because it’s really good.
