It’s still nice and hot out there, but the end of Summer is right around the corner.  That means it’s harvest time, which also means it’s time for Fall Seasonals to start arriving.  In the Great Northwest that means Fresh Hop beers (the first few are just starting to arrive now), but it also means other Fall Seasonals, including the Märzen/Oktoberfest style.

Black Raven Brewing Company (CBM Sponsor) brews several tasty Seasonal beers including Beak Tweaker Citrus IPA, Frost Beak Winter Lager and Hochzeit Pilsner.  Right now, however, it’s time for their popular Fall Seasonal: Flocktoberfest Lager.

Here is some more information about this release from Black Raven Brewing Company:

Flocktoberfest Lager

Release date: Thursday, September 7th

The Flocktoberfest is Black Raven’s fall seasonal lager. Brewed in the German Marzen style, this clean and balanced lager is the perfect summer into fall treat. This lager is crafted with traditional Czech grown and malted barley for an authentic European malt flavor with a light, toasty undertone. Domestic and European hops provide a balanced, light hop profile.

5.0% ABV

Taproom with growler fills available.

Flocktoberfest Lager arrives tomorrow, 9/7, in The Raven’s Nest – Black Raven’s brewery taproom in Redmond.  As noted above, it will only be available on tap (no bottles), so be sure to bring a growler or two with you when you visit, so you can take some Flocktoberfest home to enjoy on those crisp Fall evenings coming our way.

Drink responsibly and stay safe out there.
