Pours a clear red-orange leaning more to the orange side. Small head that diminishes almost instantly. Slightly bitter initial taste with a malty sweetness. Low carbonation. Very tasty brew.

12 oz bottle. Pours a bright, clear, and lighter red-orange with a small, off-white, fizzy head that dissipates quickly and leaves minimal lacing. Predominant aroma of sweet caramel and fruity malts with an ever so slight hint of citrus bitterness. Fruity mixture of berries and lemon/orange. Nice, abounding smell for an Oktoberfest. Taste is toffee and caramel malts balanced well with more hops than most Oktoberfests. Finishes bitter and grainy, but very smooth. I really like this Oktoberfest flavoring. More hops than I’m used to in any sort of lager. Very nice. Medium to full bodied and creamy with a dry finish and an earthy lingering bitterness. Impressed.

One of my favored Oktoberfest beers -- copper color, hoppy / malty smell, classic oktoberfest malt flavor with hoppy finish that lingers for a bit. Try one if you get the chance!

bottle thanks to swalden_28. pours amber/orange with an off white head that did not stay around at all. aroma of caramel, spice, fruits, and sweat(yes i mean sweat and not sweet). flavor of caramel, lots of malt, and a strange bitter in the finish. this was almost my first true drain pour, but i braved it for my fellow man kind.

Nice color, smells of hops and malt. Taste is on par with most Oktoberfests, malty initial flavor with a slightly hoppy bitter aftertaste

Bottled, labeled as ’’Bob’s 47 Oktoberfest.’’ Garnet orange in color with a small, bright-white head. Rich, sweet malt aroma with hints of dried fruit (plums & dates especially). I’m tempted to say it has some quadrupel characteristics in the nose. Moderately sweet, moderately hopped flavor, caramel malts quite prevalent with some grainy huskiness. Dry finish. Are you sure this is only 5.5% ABV? I seem to detect a mild alcohol flavor in the finish. Damn, this is tasty.

Solid, straight ahead malty lager. Small white head. Lots of caramel malt to it with almost no hop. Nothing extraordinary, but very drinkable.
