Description: To
celebrate the harvest, we decided to brew a beer dedicated to the
tradition of Oktoberfest. Using Pilsner malt and hops grown in the
Northwest,
this beer is our way of toasting to the great bounty that our area
brings us. Cheers!
Tasting Notes: Our
Oktoberfest has a slightly higher ABV than most Bavarian-style lagers,
followed by a more prolific aromatic hop profile. With a deep copper
color,
this lager has a toasty malt flavor and a dry finish with earthy,
grassy hop notes.
Food Pairings: Chicken, Duck, Rabbit, Pork, Potatoes, Spaetzle, Salads, Caramel Sweets and Cookies

perceptible Noble Hop bitterness with a rounded, sweet malt flavor, Venn
is golden in color, clean and harmonious.

The hallmark of this Dortmund-style lager is the balance between
perceptible Noble Hop bitterness and rounded malt flavor; making it
deliciously
easy to drink.
