Impression: I had a Märzen from them a year ago and it was golden and in the Craft Beer vein. This was labeled Kerwa Märzen and the event was just a few weeks ago so perhaps in the past it was just called Kerwabier. At any rate, it’s much different as an unfiltered amber Märzen with a malty palate and some grainy elements. Hops come out in the finish, drying it out nicely.
