Spaten Oktoberfestbier

A run to boarder meant picking up some German beers there first is Spaten Oktoberfestbier, seems as feared in the book the Marzen is no longer available.
 

 
 
 





 
 
 
Appearance:

Light gold with nice large lasting off white head

Aroma:

Toasted malt with grassy overtones

Taste:
The toasted malt comes across first which becomes more plump, bread malt which is underpinned by a light hop bitterness, the finish carries on much the same with a slight metallicness at the end. Nice subtle carbonation.

Overall:

Perfectly drinkable and different but I would not go out of my way to find it, to bad I have a whole crate!!

7.0/10
