Hofbräu Oktoberfestbier

Hofbräu Oktoberfestbier is a clear, pale golden brew.  It had lots of carbonation and a bright white head. It comes from the Staatliches Hefbräuhaus in Munich, Germany. It's sold in 500mL bottles that feature an old time-y label and contains 6.3% alcohol. It has a grainy aroma that encompasses both sweet and bitter elements quite nicely. H.O. features a crisp, well balanced flavour.  It tastes like a pilsner, only bolder--more like a concentrated pale lager.


This was a tasty brew that put me in an autumn mood. Sweet on the front end and bitter on the back, it had no real surprises, but it was refreshing and quite delicious. I haven't got much else to say about this one.  If you like robust, crisp lagers, you'll probably like Hofbräu Oktoberfestbier.

Rating: 7.5 out of 10.
