Sierra Nevada Festbier...$9.99 / 6pk 12oz cans
2024 Collaboration Festbier
Our authentic Oktoberfest is a collaboration with Brauerei Gutmann, an iconic German brewer that’s been family-owned since 1707. This classic Festbier is smooth and balanced with biscuity malt flavor and a clean finish. Prost!
Festbier: our kind of family tradition
This year's collaboration Oktoberfest is with Brauerei Gutmann, "founded in an old castle, in a very small village 300 years ago," says owner Michael Gutmann. That quaint German village now boasts a brewing legend — one that's family owned, just like us.
And we've been friends for years. Brauerei Gutmann even inspired us to make Kellerweis! (They are Bavarian hefeweizen specialists, after all.) But when it came to Festbier, we honored the historic style and our brewery signatures.
"When you build these beers together, they are a representation of both them and you," says Brian Grossman, Chief Brewer at Sierra Nevada.
So we used wheat malt as a nod to Gutmann, and as hop lovers, we chose a variety like Saphir for a flash of lemon. What you get is a smooth, balanced, and bright Festbier to enjoy as summer turns to fall.
