Bottle from Kegs & Barrels in McKinney. Aroma of nice caramel & almond. Flavor has a nice sweetness with caramel and almond but something off with the hop’s, has a type of hop biter flavor that seems off, does not complement the beer. Mouthfeel is light-medium with high carbonation....Overall, not bad but the type of hop flavor and bitter kinda ruined it a little for me......

Pours clear and crisp copper with a thin eggshell head that fades fast and leaves no lacing. Aroma is caramel and grainy malts and very slight sweet floral hops. Flavor is caramel malts, sweet, whole grain cereal, lemon citrus hops. Berries, bitter hops and copper in the finish. Body is medium with a slight stickyness and pretty dry toward the finish.

Curious. On my bottle’s label, under "Bob’s ’47" it clearly reads "Oktoberfest," unlike the picture on the beer’s page. Mayhaps this is his 47 & a half? Still, it does come across more as a Vienna. The body’s a bright copper/orange with a short-lived slender white head. The aroma is caramel with a touch of orchard fruit. Same with the flavor. A very light earthy bitterness comes in near the finish. Okay, but Bob deserves better.

12oz from thickfreakness, first beer to go with the debate all others to prepare for it. Tivoed it. I know its been over for a while now. Pours orange with a thin tan head. Nose consists of sweet malts and light caramel. Taste is sweet malty and overall a good vienna.
