Dec 13, 2007 It’s fairly offensive that this beer has achieved only a 46%. This is by far the best marzen that I’ve ever had. Orangeish-red coloring with a light white head. Retains the standard sweetness that is apparent in most BBC brews, combined with a brisk wheatiness and hints of cinnamon? You really will be surprised by this one. Don’t listen to the other naysaying reviewers.

Aug 31, 2006 Pours a dark gold bordering on brown with a thick tan head. The nose is malty, roasted nuts, caramel, brown sugar, with a distinct tartness, and some fresh baked bread essence. The taste is sensational, sweet caramel, upfront with some hoppy bitterness that is semi-balanced leaning more toward a malty front. The alcohal presence is a bit stong but not overpowering. This is a quality Oktoberfest that is very enjoyable and easily one of my favorites in the style.

Oct 3, 2008 My favorite Oktoberfest beer this year is hands down from BBC. I have had it everywhere from Eli Cannon’s to bottles and beer fests. There is a slightly more present sweetness to this version than others which I think goes over very well. Oktoberfests can tend to be a little...blah..but the malt and sweet aftertaste of this one works well.

I think I ended up with a bad bottle last time as this stuff is well above the grain for the style. Pours copper with a nice tan head. Smells of bananas and malty. Taste is thick with a nice malt profile and a tarte finish. Great brew!

Oct 5, 2002 This seemed at little dark for an Oktoberfest, but the smell was familiar and malty. I read the reveiw befor I bought it, but I did not taste the sweetness that the other two mentioned. It tasted like your standard Oktoberfest. Overall, it is not the best beer they make...

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.

Sep 25, 2005 Bottle. Orange and clear with a beautiful lasting tannish head. Malty bready slightly acidic aroma. Munich malt flavors dominate, little hops. Somewhat clean. Malty finish. Decent Fest.
