G’Suffa is our take on a Märzen: a classic German style brewed in March, lagered all summer, and enjoyed at Oktoberfest. While ours wasn’t brewed in March, it’s got all the right character: a full-bodied lager with a golden-amber glow, a toffee-forward aroma, and smooth notes of toasted tobacco, mahogany, cacao powder, and a little bit of honey.
Low in bitterness compared to other lagers, this old style beer made with German Mittelfrüh hops is reminiscent of East Coast brown molasses bread.
This beer also marks a special milestone: it’s the first large-scale recipe designed by our brewer Creighton, created alongside his longtime pal Kilian from Outer Range, and it’s Bellwoods’ first Märzen ever. Both share a love for this style (and dark lagers in general), and it shows in every sip.
