Example
Brewed with five varieties of malted barley for
a big, rich flavor.
The first thing you notice when pouring a glass of this
seasonal beer is the color. Samuel Adams® Octoberfest
has a rich, deep reddish amber hue which itself is reflective
of the season. Samuel Adams Octoberfest masterfully
blends together five roasts of malt to create a delicious
harmony of sweet flavors including caramel and toffee. The
malt is complimented by the elegant bitterness imparted
by the Bavarian Noble hops. Samuel Adams Octoberfest
provides a wonderful transition from the lighter beers of
summer to the heartier brews of winter.
The märzen style gets its name from the month in which it was traditionally brewed. Before
refrigeration March was the last month that beers could be put down for the lagering, or
cold storage process. The beers would age during the summer months and be enjoyed
around the time of the fall harvest.
This beer style became a staple beer of the annual Oktoberfest celebration in Munich. The
first celebration was originally held in 1810 to celebrate the marriage of the Crown Prince of
Bavaria. The village green on which it was first held is now a huge fairground known as the
Theresienwiese, after the royal bride. The Oktoberfest tradition has become a world
renowned celebration of beer, running for sixteen heady days every autumn in Munich,
Germany.
