Amber, big off-white head, toasted malt aroma, slightly sweet malt flavor, essence of carmel and biscuit malts, the biscuit comes through strong as it warms and the sweetness subsides, best octoberfest yet out of this brewery

Fruit and yeasty aroma over toasted grain and carame. Big head, clear, medium-to-darkish bronze beer. For the most part, its crisp with a toasty, lightly tangy malting. Not very sweet, moderately bitter. Medium body. Finishes out with a bit of roast and a parched grain flavor. A good food compliment.

Had this beer at the 5 Seasons Oktoberfest 2006. Bumped into Jeff&Susan there!!! orange amber in color. OMG, Jeff drank the Belgian Boy’s Piss! Very maltyand a great bitter finish. Perfect American Märzen.

Pours a deep amber copper with a puffy, off-white head. Has a subtle toasty caramel and earthy noble hop aroma. Starts with some mild sticky pale malty sweetness and a touch of toffee. Nicely balanced with noble hops and good authenticity. Has a full-malty palate. A very enjoyable oktoberfest, but not something that is conducive to drinking multiple liters.

A very nicely done o-fest beer. This could be my favorite to date. A bright orange color with moderate head. A big malty nose on this one. The flavor is quite sweet and more flavorful than many Ive had in the style. A big orange and caramel presence in the flavor. The finish is very sweet. A nice one.

This comes on draught in a tall mug that shows off it’s bright copper color and nice creamy head to perfection. Nice malty aroma that prepares you for the well crafted brew’s flavors that follow in the tasting. Malty and smooth, this is a very well done Oktoberfest. A $1.00 donation goes to breast cancer research from each mug sold, thus the stylish pink wristband that accompanied this.

I have the most stylish pink wristband cause i got this fine beer. A very decent oktoberfest style brew. Nice copper color to it with little head. Lots of subtle spices and dark sugary malts. Has good body yet is light on its feet and is a damn refreshing brew.

Draft at the 5 (they actually had this at Brick Store too but was gone when I got there). Clear orange-copper color with a meidum white head. Aroma and flavor of sweet caramel malt. Good body/mouthfeel. Good example.
