Pours a hazy, orange-amber color; off-white head with patchy lacing. Lightly tart, sourdough and simple sugar in the aroma; a hint of a buttery, creamy note. Medium, slightly sour mouthfeel: seems almost infected without being fully infected; some butter / butterscotch and tart citrus, with a layer of basic sugar behind it all; tart, sugary finish. Not pleasant. Darkover (1314), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 22, 2007 Amber/ brown color with a tanitsh head. Flavor and aroma of caramel malts. Ok but lacking. cking (1023), North Canton, Ohio, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 22, 2007 I was excited about this bomber considering Barrel House puts out some nice malty beverages. There is no doubt that this is an Oktoberfest Bier, but it falls short from being a great one. Nutty malt aroma with some strong caramel and a fair amount of noble hops. Clear amber color, small head, and spotty lacing. Medium to light bodied (especially for the style), finishes with a light clean bitterness. Tastes of caramel and roasted nuts. Sugary biscuits and a sharp hop flavor. A little off balance in the flavor. Overall this is decent, but it’s too light for my liking. decaturstevo (1997), decatur, Tennessee, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Oct 21, 2007 Notes from 06 knoxville brewers jam. Some bitter on the finish and just a tad of an off taste. Light nutmeg and malt aroma. A flavor with nice hints of spice. Mouthfeel and carbonation were good as well.
