Privatbrauerei M.C. Wieninger Festbier Bavarian Lager Beer – Festbier at 5.8% ABV (C$4.83 at Costco Okotoks, 500 ml, best before 1-Dec-2027, acquired 1-Sep-2026, reviewed 3-Sep-2026)
Appearance: clear pale gold with two fingers of fluffy pale ivory head diminishing gradually to a thick cap, good retention and moderate soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: honey, grass, toasted bread, faint citrus. (6/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (6/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, medium duration slightly spicy finish. (3/5)
My seventh from a Costco 12-pack of German festbiers. (I couldn’t resist, since I’m flying to Munich in under a week, and will be at Oktoberfest in under three.) There’s nothing specific here that I find problematic, but it doesn’t have a whole lot to recommend it. (13/20)
This will be my 6,502nd unique Untappd check-in.
6.5/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
