05 Aug 2015 --- Chandler, Arizona With increased public demand, SanTan Brewing Company has announced the early release of their fall seasonal, Oktoberfest Lager.
A traditional lager brewed annually for SanTan’s Oktoberfest celebration in downtown Chandler, Oktoberfest will hit Arizona shelves and craft beer bars this week, almost an entire month ahead of schedule from previous years.
Brewed in the Southwestern Style, Oktoberfest Lager is a malty beer with a slight sweet aroma of caramel spice. This brew pairs perfectly with bratwurst, schnitzel, soft pretzels, and knockwurst with sauerkraut.
“I’m excited to release Oktoberfest early this year, it was so popular last year that we almost ran out trying to keep up with demand. To remedy that, we got an early start on the season with our brewing process this year. Let the fall festivities and fun begin,” said Anthony Canecchia, founder and brewmaster at SanTan Brewing Company.
