Comments:
Thus, when FFF came out with their Munsterlager, I looked forward to seeing what it was like. Would they try to make it reflective of the town? A celebration of Northwest Indiana? Or would they try to make a beer with more character?
With a label that read, Es ist nicht normal, (It is not normal in German) I had high hopes for this beer. From the pour, it didnt look quite so normal, and I was sure it wouldnt reflect the dime-a-dozen middle/upper class Chicago suburb where it was brewed. With a huge head and a beautiful reddish color, it didnt look like any lager beer to me, but then again, its an Oktoberfest. It had a nice lager aroma that hinted at being a little fruity. The taste hits right in the front of the mouth and then spreads wide, with caramel notes and big malty flavor.
Although this combo sounds good, it ultimately struck me that this was kind of average. I could taste and appreciate the craft behind the beer, but I didnt feel that Wow! that Id hoped to get. This beer may have been nicht normal, but only when it came to the mighty belch I could produce afterward. Otherwise, to me it seemed a little ordinary.
