Sep 23, 2007 Very malty Oktoberfest. Has a somewhat bitter finish before the glass gets to warm, resulting in a rather unexpected finish. The balance of the beer is a little off. I’m not sure if it’s the water or if pelletized hops were used. It results in an unclean finish. However, this might be the best of the three I have tried so far.

Sep 5, 2007 Dark ruby/copper color caramel malty roasted toffee malts are apparent on both smell and taste. The body is surprisingly quenching for such a malted brew. There was a toffee chewy quality to the brew which has a decent smoked quality as well. Not a bad fall beer, but there are definitely better ones.

Feb 4, 2007 Pours bright amber into a shaker. Off white head quickly recedes. Crisp with malt front to back.

Nov 24, 2006 (22 oz. bottle from <A HREF=http://www.ratebeer.com/Place/massachusetts/f target=blank>Kappy’s) Fairly sweet and malty but just not very good...Pours slightly cloudy orange/amber with tall biscuit head. Aroma is vanilla, caramel, toffee and a bit of pumpkin. Mouthfeel full, pretty smooth, a bit prickly. Flavor is caramel and pumpkin, kind of sweet, but just doesn’t have a real good taste.

Nov 13, 2006 The color is dark brown. Big head! Nice spicy and malty flavors. Like other octoberfests, but it’s all good and yummy.

Oct 20, 2006 Poured an orange color with good head and good lacing. Aroma i would have to agree with eagle was bubblegummy and some caramel. Flavor was very different for this style bubblegum and the caramel and just something different. Wasn’t a fan of this one

Oct 17, 2006 Deep reddish color with some good foaming action in there. Sweeter flavor that was nicely married with a tarty spiciness. Nice stuff.

Oct 14, 2006 Poured an orange amber color with a nice initial head, good retention, good lacing. Outside of bubblegum, the aroma was quite hard to pick up, caramel and not much else for me. The flavor was sweet bubblegum caramel, strong noble hops (musty, cedar, even spicey). The alcohol was smooth at first but started to kick at warming temperatures. Came off like an ale, a sweet unbalanced altbier almost. The mouthfeel was moderate, a little sweet sticky.
