My first authentic German festbier is gonna be from Hofbrauhaus Wolters. The beer pours a nice amber color with a nice head that quickly fades. It leaves a decent ring of belgian lace around my stein. The smell is musty German pilsner and not much else. The taste is also mostly pilsner with a touch of sweet bread malt and very faint bitterness in the finish. I love the mustiness but it leaves a bit to be desired in the traditional marzen malty. This might be better than their traditional pilsner, but it's not my favorite for a fest bier, though I'd fill another stein with this guy.
