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.

Most people think an oktoberfest is supposed to be heavy and super dark. Well this beer is is the most drinkable, beautifly colored, and an excelent pallet. I mainly enjoy the porters for the dark flavor and the rich aroma as well as the drinkability. Either way I haven’t had much else in a a long time. September is just too short.

Quickly dying head on a light red beer. Light caramel aroma. This is authentic to style, sweet and lightly bittered. Excellent beer.

Not bad of a head out of the bottle, a deep copper color, malty aroma, very smooth, a well balanced marzen

Appearance: Pours a reddish-brown body with a creamy, frothy off-white head. Please, let’s get ready to enjoy ourselves! Smell: That’s a nice malty aroma -- pleasantly toasty, with hints of brown sugar and caramel. Also, its somewhat fruity, with faint notes of peach puree. Taste: Malty, sweet flavor that’s notably doughy with hints of citrus and peaches that eventually crosses over into a dry, though quite restrained bitterness. Mouthfeel: Medium-body further padded with a nice creamy, chewy mouthfeel. Drinkability: With a rich, complex array of flavors, and an ease of drinkability, this, to me, is one of the better American Oktoberfests.

Great beer, big malts and hops, a strong beer not meant for Palate challenged, a very good marzen style beer, they are meant to be hearty.

One of my favorite Octoberfest brews. Nice and thick with a bready malt backbone and evident Hallertau hoppiness. An excellent, full bodied, well-balanced brew.

These guys really got it right. Great aroma, nice flavor mix, looked and felt teriffic, and finished well. A cut above most Oktoberfests.

I am stunned and amazed. It’s an Oktoberfest that I actually really like. Wonderful mouthfeel, huge chewy malts. Nice and nutty, with a hint of smokiness in the finish. Creamy and full-bodied. Without question, the best Oktoberfest I’ve ever encountered.
