An amber lager celebrating Oktoberfest highlighting rich malt flavours and a crisp, crushable finish! 

This medium-bodied amber lager is smooth and approachable, making it an ideal choice for celebrating Oktoberfest or enjoying during crisp autumn evenings. Perfect for both novice and seasoned brewers, simply pour, ferment, and enjoy. 

This is our first seasonal release fresh wort kit. This kit will be released bi-annually; once during September when Oktoberfest takes place in Germany and once in March when beers are traditionally brewed for Oktoberfest. This is part of our limited release series and will not be available year round.

It pours a rich amber with a creamy, off-white head. The aroma highlights notes of toasted malt, caramel, and a hint of nuttiness. Taste wise, you’ll experience a smooth, malt-forward profile balanced by a gentle touch of hops, providing a refined bitterness and a clean, traditional lager finish.

Tips for best results:

When it comes to this beer style it's all in the yeast and fermentation. We would highly recommend using a traditional lager yeast and brewing it cooler to minimise the production of unwanted esters (yeast flavours). Using a strain such as Saflager W-34/70, Mangrove Jack's M76 or Bluestone Pilsen will help to accentuate the malt flavours that drive this beer. When brewing beers at cooler temperatures it's important to ensure you have a high enough cell count for a healthy fermentation, minimising flavours and getting a good attenuation. We'd highly recommend making a yeast starter to build up your yeast culture for best results; alternatively you can use 2-3 packs of dry yeast to get the same result. Make sure to follow the manufacturers recommendation for fermentation temperature as these can vary between styles. If you have no way to control fermentation temperature we would recommend using a Pseudo-lager yeast such as Omega Yeast Lutra or Lalbrew Novalager.
