Oktoberfest/MARZEN Home Brew Beer Recipe Ingredient Kit (ALE Version))

Oktoberfest is a beer made to celebrate beer! The rich German malt aroma has a noticeable toast character. Traditional Noble hops play a subtle role in balancing the smooth, rich malt character. This is one of the classic malty styles, with a maltiness that is often described as soft and complex. Traditionally this beer is brewed in March and lagered for the entire summer. We have two variations of this recipe:**** A Lager version which is fermented cold and cold conditioned for several weeks. This version is very clean and crisp, but requires patience.******* -OR-******* An Ale version which can be fermented anywhere from 60°F-70°F. This is not traditional but it IS an excellent alternative if you are in a hurry for a great beer or do not have equipment to lager.
