    Had it on tap Saturday night in Jenkintown. Very full flavored for the ABV. I really liked it and went for a 4-pack on the way out, but as @pinyin said, they were out. If you see it, definitely worth a try.

    They posted about another batch of their Roggenbier. I haven't had this one before, hope to pick some up to try.

    Was at Jenkintown location tonight and it was still on tap. Very minerally and dry - like a lager version of a saison.

    It seems that based on the reviews that I'm reading that there an appropriate style for this beer does not exist in BA. It was entered as "Light Lager", which may be as close as you can get. Most of the time, the low ABV table beers are saison ales, so this is definitely sounds unique.

    Human Robot has announced their Oktoberfest date, and also released their Festbier:

    "SEPTEMBER 21st is our annual OKTOBERFEST across from the brewery on Germantown Ave. This is an all day, all age festival, free to enter! It will be token based and we have a brand new mug for this year, more news to come!
    .
    FESTBIER - 5.6% - Festbier is all about drinkability. Ours is brewed with German pilsner malt, a touch of Munich, and Hersbrucker hops. After an intense double decoction mash, the beer is fermented slow and cold. A cracker like aroma, clean, honey like sweetness and just enough hops to balance it all out"

    I picked up a 4-pack of the the Festbier, and its good - enough flavor, but easy drinking

    Spent part of the afternoon at yesterday’s Oktoberfest. Way bigger crowd than last year, but still no wait to get beers. Tons of entrants in the long dog beauty contest, which I enjoy watching. Full sun and 80 degrees meant shaded areas were in demand. The bierwurst from Herman’s was on point as always. Picked up four cases from the brewery to tide me over for a little while.
    This is a rare beer event that my wife doesn’t mind attending so I’m sure we will make the trek again next year!

    I like the mug design and graphic. I was bummed I was out of town for this, hopefully next year.

    Great event - my wife shares the same sentiment as yours! We had a great time.

    Rotthaus pils and Marzen on draft were the highlight for me - but the Human Robot Marzen and Festbiers both could have fooled anyone as to their country of origin.

    Was recently on vacation over in Montana, Idaho, and Wyoming. Was doing plenty of hiking and outdoor activities all day, so when I did enjoy a beer with dinner it was very often something light like a pilsner, lager, or a seasonal festbier or marzen.

    After returning home, I stopped by Human Robot to try some of the new Oktoberfest releases.

    The difference is very palpable between HR and "random Bozeman breweries," we're super lucky to have HR in our backyard.

    They posted this two days ago, sounds like an interesting beer.

    Human Robot Jenkintown recently announced that Herman's at the Haus will no longer be the food option after December.

    That’s a bummer. Their food was a crowd pleaser for my picky family. Knock on wood they find something as good or better.

    Cantina La Martina will be filling the void left by Herman's leaving
