Ultimate Oktoberfest

Other

Roll out the barrel…the bourbon barrel, that is! We’re taking the classic German-style Marzen and kicking it up a notch by adding the smooth, rich flavors that only nine months in a bourbon barrel can provide! Get out your Lederhosen and prepare for an intense wave of Bavaria Hysteria – Ultimate Oktoberfest is here!

Tastes like someone put a shot of whiskey in my märzen then soaked some sourdough in it.

Good. Not quite an “ultimate” label brag but very smooth.

Wasn't at all confident that this would work, but it's solid. The barrel is pretty muted.

The bourbon really comes through. Just a little too sweet

It’s good. Reminds me of a Märzen. But… it isn’t one. Sooo… I have to knock it because of that.

Sweet and boozy. The Marzen (even for being an imperial) is pretty obscured by the BBA process. The boozy heat is medium and the ABV is tolerable. A decent choice if you want a seasonal BBA beer, not something I’d celebrate Oktoberfest with, though.

Don't know how I feel about this one. Kinda like a bourbon malt...if that's a thing. Nothing really"marzen" coming through (other than the maltyness). It's good...whatever it is. :)

Bitter finish is out of place, more like an old ale. Thin bodied for a 10% BA beer. Still, surprisingly not bad. It’s almost like there was a better beer here and it was watered down to bottle more. Wish Avery had BA’d The Kaiser back in the day.

Decent, although the more stuff like this I try, the more I think that not a lot of beer styles can hold up to this degree of barrel-aging. The usual malty character of an Oktoberfest is drowning in bourbon. (What a way to go that would be...)

Sweet, malty, and boozy. Something about it is a bit off for me.

Still has all the same Oktoberfest brew flavors but double the Abv! Plus some bourbon notes! Really strong bourbon on the nose at first!

Barrel aging really brings out the caramel notes. They're both great, and different enough to be hard to compare with each other.

Probably best to leave bourbon barrel to the stouts but I had to try it. Not good at first as bourbon is overwhelming, better after it breathes a bit.

The bourbon and wood dominate on draft. Slight astringency. I prefer this in bottles.
