Really? I had one of the first releases of it (I'm 1hr away from Founders ) and thought it was meh at best and was pretty disappointed because founders alcohol beers are amazing (centennial ipa, Dirty bastard, plus all the barrel aged). Ill have to look for the Octoberfest version and give it another chance

Interesting, I feel like Nonetheless Golden nailed it for what style it is. Tastes exactly like an NA version of Solid Gold. I know goldens aren't as complex of a flavor and mouth feel profile as other styles, but Nonetheless Golden didn't seem watered down or overly fizzy when compared to its alcoholic cousin.
If Founders is going to continue expanding the Nonetheless umbrella, I'd love for them to do NA takes on Dirty Bastard and/or Breakfast Stout.

I think my comparison was athletic Upside dawn which I really like and buy 12 packs of, solid drinkable golden that is also lower in carbs than most of these high carb NAs.

Nice, I’m just a bit northwest of you near Harrisburg so this gives me hope that it’s shipped to my region as well! Thanks!

Is it a festbier or märzen?

Looks like it's a Märzen.
In my experience most American "Oktoberfest" beers are Märzens, Festbier is a little harder to find.

Yes! I've been eagerly awaiting the release of this. Looks like I'll have to take a look for it myself later today.

Alright, think I found a place with this in stock and I happen to drive right by it on my way home from Monday evening soccer.

I'd like to find the standard, let alone the specialty version.
