I enjoyed this year's, but liked the collab they did last year even better,

Real deal Oktoberfest began today...and its Harvest Moon...raining in Munchen but what a time to be there in good ole Deutschland!

14/10/16 Harvest ALL IN...the closer came yesterday, and more weather on the way. Not seen rain since June..nary a Tstrom all summer...sittin by the fire Serra Oktofest in hand...now the real work begins.

[:)] I've seen good things about Sierra Oktoberfest, but don't think I ever tried it until now. https://brewpublic.com/beer-events/sierra-nevada-brewing-collaborates-with-weihenstephan-on-2018-oktoberfest/ [8D] i was expecting heavier, darker, more complex. That would have been fine if it was done well...[8)] ...[:p] but this version is easy drinkin', lighter, simpler. Very Good brew! [;)] Found it in Caughdenoy the other day. Wish it was less expensive; would be a great go-to brew. Smooth, clean, balanced hops and malt. TRY SOME! [^]

It says that most Baltic Porters are lagers. I think that traditionally this is true, but there seems to be a lot of crossover with Imperial Porters which are generally ales. As far as the generic Porter classification it has them as ales. I certainly understand the confusion with the way the click through options are created. Maybe one of the admins can clear this up?

I'll have one of each, please.

Unless there's been a porter revolution the last few years, any porters that are lagers should be entered as baltic porters. All others are ales I believe.

In jolly old England, Porters (like stouts) are ales. It was only in Scandinavia that 'dem damn Vikings' decided that Porters should be lagered (or is it that it never gets warm enough in Scandinavia to top ferment?)
