Hofbräu München brewery is has existed for over 400 years. Owned by the Bavarian state government, the Hofbräu brewery has had an integral part in forming the heritage of the city of Munich.

Golden in colour and sparkling clear, Hofbräu’s Oktoberfestbier has notes of grainy bread, some lemon, and spritzy hops. A very light taste of sweet malts and some light grassiness, this light-bodied and delicate tasting German lager is a drinkable and decent beer.

Easy drinking golden bier with malt hops and bread aroma . Tasting of malted biscuit vinous fruit and a dry hoppy finish .

A decent Oktoberfest beer

Review by Rico 25/09/2019

Hofbrau's offering is the highest ABV of all oktoberfest lagers, at 6.3%. It goes down surprisingly smooth but tastes very similar to their normal brew - hints of malt, straw, low carbonation. While decent, I'd still recommend Augustiner over this.

Nice Oktoberfest brew
