for an Oktoberfest, but still good. Delbomber (387), Philadelphia, USA

Purple grape juice aroma with hint of chocolate. Reddish-brown hue and consistent head lead to a light, slightly bubbly mouthfeel. Malty and predominantly flavored by grape, this is a great brew. A bit rich, not something I could drink all night, this should probably be enjoyed only once every so often. johnson2020 (79), Canton, Michigan, USA

Flavor has loads of caramel, nicely sweet. Less biscuity than most marzens, but in a very good way, very nice malty character. A bit light on the hops, but enjoyably sticky. jayme9874 (756), Hamburg, New York, USA

Sweet malty, bready aroma, light caramel and hops. Medium bodied, lovely sweet malt balanced nicely by hop character. Tastes very fresh, I have had this before and the hops have never been this bold (for a Ofest) Excellent for my first of this year. 21iceman40 (1731), vienna, West Virginia, USA

It has that traditional flavor, but I wasn't feeling how sweet it was. Maybe a little more hops and a little less sweet would do it. FlemishChar (224), Virginia, USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 2, 2003 Appearance: This Oktoberfest pours a clear golden/amber color with a larger, two fingered white head.
Aroma: This puppy goose-steps in with a malty aroma. (you can feel the lederhosen in the air)
The flavor is malty and sweet with a clean, crisp finish. This is a very enjoyable Oktoberfest and a nice example of the style
