Known as Märzen, this style of beer is traditionally brewed in the Bavarian region during the month of March (März), especially for the Oktoberfest festivities. Derived from the Vienna Lager style, it has a smooth aroma of toasted malt and a varied range of colors, ranging from orange-amber to a deep reddish copper. With a medium body, it has a malty sweetness at the beginning and a moderately dry finish. Some prominent beers of this style include Paulaner Oktoberfest, Hacker-Pschorr Original Oktoberfest and Hofbrau Oktoberfest.
