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

BlackDonald (1040), North Carolina, USA Apr 6, 2008 This is what I call a big and tall beer. Large aromas of dark fruits, and a flavor that grabs you and will not let you go. Very malty with lots of earthy wood notes, slight hop bitterness in the finish, very drinkable. shp555 (1377), lilburn, Georgia, USA Jan 4, 2008 Pours a clear amber color with a white fluffy head. Aroma is sweet, malty, and caramel. Flavor is sweet caramel and a light spicy bitter finish. Cybercat (400), USA Oct 28, 2007 Pours a dark honey-golden with a nice thick head. Aroma is quite strong and all malty. Flavor is rich and malty with a strong hint of spices. This ale is very smooth and pleasant, and the aftertaste is jazzy with a hint of hops. TheBeerOrg (1376), Kentucky, USA Oct 26, 2007 Updated: Oct 29, 2007Pours golden amber with a thin, mostly receding off-white head. Aroma of bread dough, crackery malts, and light caramel sweetness. Tastes of crisp toasted malt balanced, lightly sweetened crackers. Mouthfeel is medium to full bodied, with the perfect balance between sweet and dry. Moderate carbonation. As American brewers go, 5 Seasons has pretty much nailed the German session lagers. fro2218 (465), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Sep 30, 2007 Amber color. Caramel and malty in aroma. Slightly tart and bready in flavor.
