This beer goes by many names: Aletoberfest, Mocktoberfest, Fauxtoberfest, ALToberfest. An ale version of a Marzen-style Oktoberfest as seen brewed by Ryan and Judi Schenian in Chop & Brew – Episode 13: Brewing Aletoberfest. Thanks to Ryan and Judi for sharing this recipe with the people! This is a quick-turning beer using ale yeast to ferment so there’s still time to get yours in before the fall festival season is over.

    Can anyone suggest a good sub for the Tradition hops?

      Per Chris Paynes:
      “If you’re sticking with German hops I would say, German Northern Brewer, German Perle or Hallertau Mittelfruh or even a blend of the
      three. If we’re going the U.S. route then maybe Vanguard or Liberty or a blend of the two. The most important part is to pick a variety low in Cohumulone, with an oil balance that favors Humulene instead of Myrcene and a balance that favors Caryophyllene instead of Farnesene.” #nerdlife
