The Clock is Ticking: Brew Your Oktoberfest Now with Goldpils® Vienna.

August is the critical window to get your Oktoberfest and Märzen beers into the fermenter so they have proper time to lager before the autumn festivities begin. Briess Goldpils® Vienna Malt is a superb example of a classic 2-Row base malt, offering deep, rich complexity with a beautifully toasted note at the finish. Less sweet than Pale Ale Malt and less intensely kilned than Munich malts, it provides the perfect, balanced foundation for your seasonal German lagers.
