Commercial Description:
Brooklyn Oktoberfest was introduced in 2000. It is true to the original German style, full-bodied and malty, with a bready aroma and light, brisk hop bitterness.

Clear orange-brown body, thin off-white head. Aroma of sweetened breads and toast. Strongly carbonated body with caramel and toast, thin, sugary, bitter grassy hops finish. A pleasant sip but lacks character.

Nice ’fest beer and one that I would have again. Perfectly balanced and malty with a nice dry finish.

Bottle at The rake, London. Clear, deep red amber colour, small head. Nutty caramel nose. Flavours are sweet with nuts, raisins and caramel. Rather light-bodied, fizzy. Rather bland for a Brooklyn beer.

12 oz. bottle. Clear reddish amber , medium off white head that settles quickly. Roasty, grainy aroma. Medium body, light carbonation. Sweetnes imparted by some nice roasted grains giving hints of caramel and toffee. Just enough bitterness comes on to prevent a sticky sweetness. Very lightly hopped, appropriate for the style. Easy drinking makes for a nice session beer.

From a 12 oz. long neck brown with a blurb on the neck label, fall ’06 release. Poured a clear reddish amber with a foamy, fluffy pale tan head that settled into a thin sudsy lacing, minimal amount of sticking. Aromas of toasted grain and malts, a light spicy and floral hoppiness. Good carbonation and a malty crisp, chewy and creamy smooth medium bodied mouthfeel. Good Oktoberfest taste, toasted grains and caramel malts, a light mesh of raisin fruitiness and alcohol, a spicy, fresh hoppiness that is soft in their bitterness, and a dry grainy, malty finish with a bit of fruitiness and hops lingering in the palate. A tasty and balanced Oktoberfest lager, very good drinkability, I can see myself drinking this all night on an October Saturday, smooth and easy, quite quaffable.

2005 bottle. I’m not a big fan of oktoberfest but his one wasn’t that bad. Pours a thin head that stayed. Pale orangey color with decent carbonation. Decent taste and palate and big malty taste. Decent.
