A spinoff of the Sierra Nevada thread. Sam Adams is solid, but I haven't tried many. I think Yuengling has one out too.

Does Harvest Moon count? Looking forward to trying this Sierra Nevada Oktoberfest after reading the other thread.

St. Arnold's
Karbach

I also recently found Yuengling Oktoberfest in Florida. It was pretty good.

Ayinger is the gold standard of what's available here in the states for märzens, IMO

I'm also a fan of Weihenstephan Festbier, albeit not a märzen

Harpoon does a pretty solid Oktoberfest as well. Might actually be my favorite of their beers.

I've tried Abita's, Yuengling's, Sam Adams, Shiner's, and St. Arnold's. -- St. Arnold's stood out the most

Agreed but, Augustiner Bräu may have a slight lead in my book.

Augustiner is my go-to in Germany, but I left that one out since you can only get Edelstoff and Maximator here in the states (if I'm wrong there, I'd love to know where to get it!)

Their Helles is exceptional as well.

Their helles is the tits. It's rare you find something stateside that has "that" helles flavor you get in Germany and Austria. I've chased it since I went to their biergarten in Salzburg.

The Sierra Nevada Oktoberfest has been great this year and in the running for my favorite. I'm not a big fan of Marzens. The toasty sweetness is too much for me.

Does anyone know of a place in Laffy with a good selection of Marzen beers?

Had this the other day, and I completely agree. That's a really good beer.
