Leinenkugel’s Oktoberfest: Review

12 oz bottle

5.1% abv

Leinenkugel Brewing Co.

Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin, USA

This German-Style Marzen pours a bright amber color.  It has a thin tan head that disappears quickly.  There is a nice grain and caramel malt flavor.  It is a bit sweet but the big watery edge controls the sweetness.  It is smooth and easy to drink.  There is no strong lingering aftertaste but, it does have the usual metallic Oktoberfest aftertaste. 

I think it is a little below average to average Octoberfest making it a good introductory beverage to this style. 

Buy: if you have not had this style before this would be good to start with.
