Septemberfest
Wolf's Ridge Brewing

 

12 ounce can, packaged on AUG 09 2024. Served in a dimpled mug, the beer pours a mostly clear gold color with not quite an inch tan head that stuck around a while. There's also a good amount of lacing. Aroma is nice, the brew smells like bready malt, caramel and some lemon. Taste is similar to the aroma, but there's also some earthy hop flavors noticeable too. Mouthfeel/body is light/medium, it's smooth and easy to drink with a moderate amount of carbonation. I thought this was a good overall festbier, worth picking up if you get the chance!

 

 

 

 

I got a 6pck of cans of this beer from my local Giant Eagle store. It poured a clear golden with white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had mild grain notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with bright crisp malt base with subtle bitter hop finish.....that leave a hint on lemon. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a great beer.

 

Poured from a twelve ounce can dated July 15, 2022. Body is an Amber that's slightly cloudy. Small initial head and good lacing during the tasting.

Aroma is a hearty wheat nose of cracker and bread along with a touch of caramel. Taste follows nose and adds a bit of hoppiness which serves to balance.

Carbonation is light and mouthfeel is good. This one is a drinker - perfect for an Oktoberfest celebration.

 

02/13/22 can @ home

12 oz can, poured into a nucleated teku at ~40 degrees F.

L: Poured a beautiful mostly-clear amber, and formed a thick, fluffy head of white foam with good retention. Plenty of carbonation visible in the beer. Lacing is quite prominent and durable.

S: Like freshly broken soft bread in a ripened wheat field, with a faint tinge of freshly mown lawn some distance away.

T: This beer opens as liquid bread and crackers. Some soft grassy tones develop as it moves along, with some faint caramel in the background. Bee pollen and clover tinges emerge by the finish, and the aftertaste is fresh baked bread sprinkled with fresh lawn clippings.

F: On the lighter end of medium, and quite lively.

O: This is quite tasty.

Canned on 8/2/21. 12oz can poured into a tulip. Pours golden with great clarity and transparency; small white head that fades leaving solid retention and sticky lacing. The aromas have a nice amount of breads, crackers and grains. Some caramel. Malts are there. The flavors follow the nose. More breads and grains. Lots of caramel. Some fresh grass in the mix. Decent bitterness to go with a subtle sweetness. Solid malt backbone. Alcohol goes unnoticed. Mouthfeel is medium-bodied with active carbonation. It's sharp, fluffy, smooth and easy to drink.

This is a nice brew. It's clean and the craftsmanship is on point. It feels like it wants to be unique, but it ultimately stays true to the style. It's enjoyable and fun to drink. Well done. I personally like this one more than their regular Oktoberfest, which is also a solid brew.
