Beer Profile

FESTBIER

This Festbier presents a clear golden hue topped with a frothy white head. The aroma offers toasted malt and freshly baked bread notes, complemented by a subtle floral hop character. On the palate, the malt backbone delivers a soft, biscuity sweetness balanced by delicate hop flavors from Magnum, Cascade, Nectaron, and Elani, creating a smooth, approachable mouthfeel. At 6.4% ABV and 18 IBU, it maintains a mild bitterness that supports the malt without overpowering. The use of Chesapeake Pilsner, Light Munich, and Appalachian Wheat malts contributes to its balanced yet flavorful profile, making it a traditional yet distinctive interpretation of the Festbier style.
