Really liking this year’s rendition

Me too its a great beer! Sierra Nevada https://sierranevada.com/brews/oktoberfest/ web site Fesbier ingredients are: Briess 2 row malt and hops are Cascade, Tettnang and Tradition hops.

Agreed.  I have a 6-er and it's one of this year's best so far.

I’ve enjoyed it as well. A nice noble hop character. I can’t believe that is all the malt they used because it tastes more complex to me.

The list of malts says “Briess, Two-row Pale”. The comma after Briess is weird to me.

The written description says “rich with biscuity malt”.  Did they mean to include Briess Victory in the malt bill? or did they toast some two row?

They also describe the color as "bright like polished copper", which doesn't sound like something you get from just 2-row pale malt. Regardless, I need to get some to try!

It's not copper at all, but a deep gold.  Here's a picture I took out my front window (facing Kwik Trip, I am so lucky to live next to a Kwik Trip!).

I'm thinking that the comma may mean that they use malt(s) from Briess in addition to 2-row pale. There's no way I can imagine that the pictures or descriptions are from a beer brewed with 100% pale malt grist.

As much as I want to start grabbing 6-ers of my favorite Ofests, I'm still clinging on to summer for as long as I can. I'll see if I can hold out a few more weeks, but this will be on my short list.
