Just to be clear, "Hammer-Schlagen" is not a German game: WRB, Inc. of Minnesota (located just a few miles away from LiftBridge) owns the family of intellectual property known as Hammer-Schalgen, and operates its business under these marks. LiftBridge has been licensed to use the brand under specific circumstances by Jim Martin Companies, and its owners even request the brand's presence at its brewery (and at events leading up to their founding during the previous decade).
At any rate, good beer!

Lift Bridge Schlagen Fest (Oktoberfest )
Slagen is German for "Strike", as in the German game of "Hammerschlagen", striking with a hammer. Why this was called that, I'm not entirely sure. Poured from a growler, courtesy of Lift Bridge Brewing, fresh from the taproom.
Clear, dark amber, copper coloring, short, but lasting off-white head.
Aroma: slightly sweet earthy/herbal notes, lush malt, toasty and warm.
Taste: Malt is the champion here and rises up, dominates the palate. Medium body, nice and smooth, not too wide on any side. Warm, toasty caramel tones, rich and delicious. Judicious notes of sweet malt drop pleasure through every sip and swallow. Slides down easy, cool and classy. And it goes, it grows meatier and heartier.
