Beer Review: Sierra Nevada Oktoberfest - Brauhaus Miltenberger

With fall comes the changing of colors, the coolness of the temps, the early darkening of the day, and oh yes, Oktoberfest. We can’t forget Oktoberfest and all the beers and of course events that are bestowed upon us at that time and all of the pleasantries that we get to enjoy. So it’s only fitting for me to enjoy a beer honoring just that.

The Oktoberfest – Brauhaus Miltenberger from Sierra Nevada Brewing is just a beer to do so. I mean Oktoberfest is right there on the can. This is the 2017 edition of their Oktoberfest and each year Sierra Nevada collaborates with an overseas brewer for the beer; this year it is Brauhaus Faust-Miltenberger that was chosen. The beer comes in with an alcohol content of 6.1% ABV and an IBU level of 30. Now this is interesting because IBU’s are usually lower for this style, so I will be looking for a little bittering kick for sure.

I am ready to see what this Festbier offers, so grab a beer and join me by checking out my video below to see what I find. And together, we will “Get Our Beer On!” Cheers!
