Notch Brewing

Notch Brewing Festbier captures the festive spirit of the Munich tents with a sophisticated balance of elegance and drinkability. This Festbier pours a brilliant deep gold, radiating with the aroma of freshly baked bread and lightly toasted dough derived from high-quality Pilsner and Munich malts. On the palate, a soft malty richness unfolds, offering a clean, doughy sweetness that remains remarkably light on its feet. Delicate Noble hops provide a floral and spicy counterpoint, leading to a crisp, well-attenuated finish. It is a masterful display of restraint, prioritizing a smooth, creamy texture while showcasing a deep, golden malt complexity.

Appearance. Deep gold color (approximately 5 SRM) with brilliant clarity. Features a thick, persistent white foam stand with excellent lacing.

Aroma. Moderate malty richness with prominent toasty-doughy notes and a faint impression of sweetness. Hop character is low to medium-low, presenting floral and herbal aromatics. Clean fermentation profile with no esters or phenols.

Taste. Initial impression is of soft malty richness featuring lightly toasty, bread dough flavors from the Pilsner and Munich malt grist. Medium-low bitterness provides supportive balance without overwhelming the malt. Floral and herbal hop flavors are present but subtle. The finish is well-attenuated and crisp, leaving a lingering, clean malt flavor.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, somewhat creamy texture. Carbonation is moderate. Alcohol warmth is barely noticeable, contributing to a very high level of drinkability.
