Easy nutty body, wisps of caramel and accented by Munich and Vienna Malts. Doughy. Hops provide balance, but don’t stand out. A hint of spice and citrus. Bitter-sour pilsen finish.

Bottle: Pours a copper bronze color with a nice sticky white head and clean sheets of lacing. The nose is sweet and floral, light toasted pumpkin seed and a grassy juniper and hop note with some peach, maybe some glue. The flavor is...I would put the mouthfeel first. A fizzy/fuzzy creaminess that makes each drink feel like a little fun snap on the tongue. The flavor is sweet and bready with some light fruit and continued doughiness. Finishes light and refreshing with a hint of fruit and spice. Nice oktoberfest.

Clear amber with a frothy head. Nice malt driven sweet bread aromas. Smooth medium body. Good taste is mostly sweet bread caramel malts with some light roasted malt. Liquid sweet bread here. Good stuff.
