Distinctions:

Paulaner Oktoberfest Märzen was called after the month of March ("März" in German). Before refrigeration was invented, the last oppourtunity to brew bottom-fermented beer was during March. To maintain stability against the heat of the summer, the wort was made somewhat stronger than usual. This kind of beer was served at the first Oktoberfest. Oktoberfest Märzen was born!

Serving suggestions:

Traditionally, Paulaner Oktoberfest Märzen is enjoyed from 1 litre "masses". It is best accompanied by roast knuckle of pork, roast or chicken, barbeques, and pairs well with the spiciest of cuisines.
