Oktoberfest Time?.. Well, yes. Actually.
Since our Clipper City MarzHon won the top medal for Vienna lager at the Great American Beer Festival for the last two years, we decided it was time to make that beer available outside the immediate local market on an occasional basis.
So once a year, as the Oktoberfest beers of the world are arriving, we now make it available with a special Oktoberfest label (it is an Oktoberfest style beer after all). As you can see the label is a tribute – with a sense of local style – to the classic young women who deliver litres of beer at the big event in Munich.
And while we know it is just a bit early in the year to start thinking of your lederhousen – the season IS right around the corner – so make sure you grab some of our MarzHon to go with those fabulous grilled sausages, rye bread, and mustard. I am certain you will not be disappointed!
Prosit! Hugh Sisson, Managing Partner for Clipper City Brewing Co, LP
