Funny, just last Thursday I spent a night just a mile from there. I need to stop in on my way home...@Nosybear
I went out for lunch today and what do they have to offer? The first Grodziskie I’ve ever seen. This was really good and it was finished in about 4 sips. Session beer, indeed.

How’d it taste? Not seen their Oktoberfest around here surprisinglyIt's that time of year again. They weren't kidding about it being amber. And disappointingly the head immediately disappeared View attachment 17007
Very malty with balanced bitterness. A little too sweet. Their website lists malts as black, Munich, Pilsner, and special roast. I was very surprised to see it in stores alreadyHow’d it taste? Not seen their Oktoberfest around here surprisingly
American breweries should stop, just stop, trying to make American style Oktoberfests. They are all too sweet and completely un-sessionable…which would seem to me to be the complete opposite of the whole point of an Oktoberfest beer to begin with!Very malty with balanced bitterness.
