COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The best domestic and imported German malts are used to produce our delicate yet complex bottom fermented lager. Its sweet maltiness dominates the palate but leaves behind a subtle, clean hop finish. Each batch of our Oktoberfest is cold lagered ensuring optimal enjoyment in the finest old-world tradition.

Quite impressive. Liked this better than the authentic Deutsche Oktoberfestbier I’ve had so far. Has a nice, full malty body, enough flavors to keep you occupied for a while.

hennes (934) - Fountain, Michigan, USA - SEP 19, 2001

The best of the many Oktoberfests I’ve been sampling lately trying to get a feel for the style for homebrewing. It has a truly rich maltiness with enough textured bite to give it character, and feels lovely on the tongue. Well done, Goose!

fraternie (777) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - SEP 9, 2001

Fairly complex beer...dark amber color with strong malt and hops. Thin body. Very consistent with the style of this brewery.
