Wiedemann's Octoberfest
Geo. Wiedemann Brewing Company, LLC

12oz undated can poured into a mug at fridge temp 5.6% ABV and 15 IBU per label. The beer pours bright light copper in color with light khaki colored head. The head recedes to a thin cap. Minimal lacing. The aroma is mild with well toasted malt and faint earthy hops. The taste is semisweet malt with burnt sugar caramel, earthy & spicy hops and a mildly bitter, slightly soapy finish. The feel is thin bodied with average carbonation and a mostly dry finish. Cleanly lagered. Overall, fair American attempt on the style.

 

 

Can dated 8/2/22. Poured an amber, burnt orange color with off white head. Aroma was malt leaning and taste followed the aroma. A bit sweet, but my taste does lean to liking beers that aren't dominated by hoppiness. Good beer and would buy again. 6 pk cans was $10.99+ tax. Recommend to give this beer a try.

This beer pours a brilliant burnt orange color. It is topped with a couple inches of beige head that leaves no lacing.

It has a wonderful toasted caramel aroma. I get toffee, caramelized sugar, toast, and a light dose of earthy hops.

The taste is caramel, toffee, toast, and a earthy bitterness from the hops.

Medium bodied with a slick mouthfeel

This is a very enjoyable marzen. One of the better ones that I have had this season. I think Wiedemann's beers are underrated.

 

 

 

This is my first experience with this brewery, and this beer gave a good first impression.

The beer poured a dark copper color with a thin white head that dissipated quickly.

It gave off a sweet malty aroma and almost a toasted almond scent as well.

In the beginning, the beer is slightly sweet. The middle of the taste was excellent. It was a strong toasted caramel flavor similar to other good Oktoberfest Marzen style beers that I have liked. The finish is crisp and clean with a slight malty touch.

Mouth feel was slightly disappointing because I found it a bit over carbonated.

Overall, I really enjoyed this Oktoberfest, and would consider this a go-to craft version of an Oktoberfest.

12 oz bottle contract brewed by Stevens Point (WI).
Looks just right: deep amber; excellent clarity; decent head. Malt dominated aroma and flavor. A bit too sweet up front, perhaps, but shifts to slightly bitter in the aftertaste.
