Narragansett Beer released its award-winning seasonal favorite, Narragansett Fest, a traditional amber-brown German Oktoberfest style beer. The beer won a silver at the Beverage Tasting Institute’s 2010 World Beer Championship and a gold medal at the 2011 Great International Beer & Cider Competition in Providence, R.I.

Brewed with the highest quality German malt and hops, Fest is crafted in small batches under the supervision of Brewmaster Sean Larkin at the North American Brewery in Rochester, N.Y. Vienna, Pilsner, Light and Dark Munich malts make up the backbone of the beer, and Northern Brewer and Tettnanger hops are added to give it a crisp but subtle hop flavor.
