From Fort Collins:
Fort Collins, Colo. – FCB (Fort Collins Brewery) is thrilled to take home a
gold medal for their fall seasonal, Oktoberfest at the 2015 Great American Beer
Festival.
Breweries from all 50 states competed in this year’s GABF, the largest
commercial beer festival in the world. More than 6,000 beers representing 92
categories were sent in and blind tasted before choosing the winners from each
category.
Stacked against 47 other entries in the Dortmunder or German-Style
Oktoberfest category, FCB was awarded the gold medal during Saturday’s
award presentation.
“We are very proud and honored to receive a GABF gold medal for our
Oktoberfest, said Tina Peters, FCB’s Co-Owner and General Manager. “This has
a special meaning for us given our passion for German style beers and
brewing.”
In its second season, Oktoberfest unleashes the complexity and depth of
Vienna, Munich and Caramel malts that create this beer’s distinct aroma and
flavor. German noble hops balance this rich and malty lager with a bouquet of
aromas.
Oktoberfest is available to FCB’s distribution footprint through the fall
season in 6-packs and on draft. To find Oktoberfest near you, use FCB’s Beer
