A full rich bodied, hoppy, seasonal lager. Especially brewed for the Festbier season. This beer truly represents the Bavarian way of celebrating. Deep gold color, great mouthfeel and lots of flavor. Prost!
von Trapp Brewing's take on a traditional fest beer
Based on the "Bavarian" style beer that Narragansett produced in the '60s and '70s, this elegant Oktoberfest stye Märzen is brewed with the highest quality German malt and hops. Weyermann's Munich malt creates a rich bready and toasty base, while the noble Tettnang hops add a crisp, but subtle and dry spcied finish.
Smuttynose Pumpkin Ale is their homage to New England’s original brewers, a tip of the cap to historic beer recipes calling for
the use of pumpkins that date back to early colonial times.
