The pour was clear amber with a compact white head and minimal spots of lacing. The aroma was sweet malts, light citrus and plenty of floral hops. The flavor was light caramel and citrus that were trampled by perfumy, floral notes. Like drinking potpourri water towards the end. Thin, sometimes metallic mouthfeel. Meh.

12 oz. bottle. fairly weak nose, some lemon, cookie malt. very weak head, pretty translucent, darker burnt orange color, minor carbonation. pretty smooth and fairly light body not as malt heavy as expected, decent citrus lemon hop backing, good balanced taste in the middle, but the aftertaste leaves something to be desired to me.

Malty. Sweety. A fairly basic Oktoberfest. Lots of sticky. An ok beer all around. Nothing incredible.

2008 bottle labeled as "octoberfest". Pours a clear dark golden straw with a quick fading eggshell head. Aroma of sweet malt. Flavor of burnt caramel malt and hops. Medium body with some carbonation. Hop bitterness in the finish. The hoppiest ’octoberfest’ i’ve had.

Copper color with a big tan head and a good amount of slow moving carbonation. Nicely balanced aroma of caramel, floral, and sugar. Flavor doesn’t quite work. The spices work against the hop resulting in an unpleasant flavor. The first Boulevard that I haven’t enjoyed.

Wet cardboard aroma has a bit of sweet malty grains. Clear, orange red body with quick off-white bubbles. Sweet heavily honeyed malt flavour. Medium body. Mildly unpleasant.

It pours a coppery orange, with a thin head. The aroma is sweet and fruity. The flavor opens with some fruit flavor, I can especially pick out banana. The finish is a bit herbaceous, and there is a very fizzy bite to it. This bottle says oktoberfest, not Munich style lager. Its quite tasty.
