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!

New this year, Aged Oktoberfest in Bourbon Barrels for several months. And I would say to mixed results. The bourbon flavors really do come through, but over an otherwise thin and not particularly malty Oktoberfest base.

Bourbon flavor in a marzen is unique but I don't hate it. Rich, very boozy, but addicting. Cheers to 7000!

Not sure the Märzen holds up against the bourbon barrel

Was kinda underwhelmed by this one. Hides the 10% really well, but just didn't have much going for it in terms of flavor.

Same as regular but certainly the bourbon takes over and if you want an Oktoberfest just get their regular one. Darker in color for sure.

I think the folks at Founders got Märzen and Marzipan, because I'm getting a whole lot of the latter! Very boozy, which masks a lot of the flavors. While I was intrigued by an Imperial Märzen, there's little in this taste profile that yells, "Märzen!"

They nailed it. Imagine taking a glass of marzen and pouring in 2 shots of bourbon. Mix it together and you have this. Verdict: marzen doesn't age well in Bourbon barrels. Very boozy. But A+ for the attempt. Why the hell not? Cheers, Founders!

Founders sets a high precedent. This one was extremely boozy, but still had some nice flavor. Having a beer with Wayde

The barrel aging takes all the malt flavor and pushes it to the back of the bus. Tasty and boozy, but not my favorite Oktoberfest.

Meh, comes off more boozy on the front then I’d like. Finishes with the Marzen flavor.
