Highland's Clawhammer

The Oktoberfest seasonal is out from Highland Brewery.  Behold the Clawhammer! Cass fell into a freshly bottled 12 direct from the brewery this afternoon and it is being thoroughly enjoyed this evening.  Cass explains it is a rich, bold, and fruvulous beer. Since I don't know what that tastes like I'll supplant his opinion by stating that it's yummy.  The Highland Brewery's site describes it as. . .
Clawhammer Oktoberfest is a lightly colored, but toasty, rich and full bodied Marzen style lager, brewed with traditional German malt and the finest noble hops.  A spicy hop finish and aroma balance out the abundance of malt flavor.  Clawhammer means pure high-country enjoyment!
                                                        
IBU: 25
Alcohol Content: 5% by volume
Hops: Hallertau Mittlefrue & German Spalt Select
 So hopefully your own analysis will fall somewhere in the middle.
Ultimately the word is: "Oktober is here, it's time to drink beer."
