| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 23, 2006 Nice clear amber body with a sizeable off-white head. The aroma is warm, buttered toast with a drop or two of caramel. Nicely carbonated. The flavor remains toasty and sweet, some pears showing up, and an addition of a light earthy bitterness that lasts into the finish. Not too bad.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 1, 2004 There is actually some real malty "fall classic" flavor in here, by gum. Bit malty/roasty/smoky, nice balance. Many better choices for an Okt of course, but this is fine for the price.
