GoBlue (93), Falls Church, Virginia, USA Oct 13, 2009 Really the standard by which I compare O’fests. Deep, deep gold color with orange highlights and a white head. Noble hop aroma with plenty of malt and just a slight sulfury note. Flavor is intense malt but with a clean finish and noble hop character. Beautiful balance of rich maltiness without being cloying and without the caramel flavors that so many US brewers insist on putting in their beers. What a great beer. caresville (106), Vernon, New Jersey, USA Oct 12, 2009 i love this stuff. easily one of the best, if not the best oktoberfest out there. has that malty, sweet almost official oktoberfest smell and tastes so simple but so perfect. tastes like an alcoholic werthers original candy sucker thingy. love it!! Finhead (56), Illinois, USA Oct 12, 2009 Golden orange with a large frothy off-white head. It has a sweet, lightly hopped aroma. The medium body is lively and finishes semi-dry and lightly acidic. smith4498 (825), Miami, Florida, USA Oct 11, 2009 Pours hazy amber color with off white head. Sweet fruit, caramel and bread aromas. Flavor is moderately sweet caramel and some fruits. Medium body with soft carbonation and a creamy mouthfeel. An excellent Oktoberfest brew. kevd193213 (477), Hope Valley, Rhode Island, USA Oct 11, 2009 1 pt 9 oz bottle. Nice amber pour with a thick light tan head. Aroma of caramel malt. Fantastic taste of malt and sugar with that familiar Oktoberfest sharp finish. patrickfannon (274), Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 10, 2009 Draft. Pours golden amber with a creamy, off-white head. Hoppy aroma, with hints of yeast, malt, spice, and wheat. Medium body with a weak finish. Sub-par Oktoberfest. Leighton (234), New York, New York, USA Oct 9, 2009 Exactly what I want an Oktoberfest beer to taste like. Pours a rich brown-gold with a lingering head. Malty aroma with slight hints of grain. Flavor is nice malt with a little hop, which balances out well. Smooth with a nice finish, sweet yet mildly bitter. Great stuff. spkldhenlvr24 (446), Newburgh/Buffalo, New York, USA Oct 7, 2009 Bottle. Pours a clear deep golden body with an orange tint. Medium sized with head with some decent lacing. Really hard for me to pick this aroma out but I got a lot of cereal and malt with the smallest amount of yeast, fruit and hops. Crisp, smooth, mellow, full bodied mouthfeel. Nice balance of sweet malts with a slightly bitter finish. Very easy drinking beer. Really enjoyable.
