Fall is finally here!

     Today being the first Sunday of the NFL regular season means that fall has officially arrived.  To commemorate we cracked open a very special brew, the first ever Double Hump all grain recipe of our Oktoberfest beer.  With Pilsner, Munich and Vienna malts with a mix of Hallertauer and Tettnanger hops this is a very traditional marzen beer (not those extra hopped American versions of Oktoberfest).  It came out at about 5% alcohol and was very tasty.  The picture below is of this wonderful beer with a picture of the Berlin Cathedral Church that I took while in Germany this summer (to my severe disappointment I did not make it to Bavaria where Oktoberfest was invented, but had to drown my sorrows in the beers of 5 other German cities).
