Feb 23, 2007 (12oz bottle, bottled 10/11/06, thanks wilkie) Small beige head atop clear amber body. Aroma is medium sweet, caramel, peach, nutty, some toffee. Taste is moderately sweet, caramel, peach, light lager yeast, finishes with some earthiness and a hint of alcohol. Watery light-medium body, rather drinkable

Oct 22, 2005 Draught. Clear amber color with thin off white head. Not much nose, a bit of roasy malt. Caramel, spicy flavor without much hop flavor or bitterness. Not bad.

Nov 3, 2007 On draft. Deep amber, modest head, and faintly malty aroma. Lightly hopped (floral) and quite drinkable, this one is fine but leaves little impression.

Sep 28, 2002 Good flavor, but nothing special in general. Nice blend of
roasted malt and caramel flavor, but hops are almost
undetectable. It is better than Sam Adam’s version of
Oktoberfest, but certainly not the best I have had.

Sep 16, 2006 From notes 11/15/04:
Pours a deep golden orange with a rather voluminous creamy off-white head. Sheets of lacing cling to the glass with resolve. Thick heavy scents of malt and toffee. Some caramel square chewiness in the aroma along with some light twinges of yeastiness. Flavors are dominated by a chewy malt backbone. Thick and coating. Smooth and full. A glimmer of hops peek out at the end. For the sweet and thick maltiness of this beer, the finish is clean and dry. A finite end. A nice beer. Solid. Easily drinkable. The pints were flowing smoothly while passing the time at Village Draft House in Raleigh.

Nov 16, 2007 Draft. Golden color, fizzy head, big soda-like bubbles visible within the beer. Sweet smelling lager with caramel notes. Tasty and sweet. I get a bit of honey, especially in the aftertaste. Even a hint of peppery spice.
