Jan 12, 2009 Poured a clear orangish amber with a thin tan head that went down to just a film. The aroma was very mild and just a bit of sweetness. The flavor was also very light with just a hint of sweetness and it rolled into a slightly dry finish. In general just an average beer.

Nov 29, 2008 Pours a clear, light amber color with a small white head. Sweet aroma of caramel and malt. Slightly sticky mouthfeel gives way to more sweet malts and caramel, with a buttery finish. Not my favorite style, but not bad...

Nov 20, 2008 Bottle. Pours orange amber with a white head. Sweet aroma with honey and an almost fruity quality. The flavor is also sweet with caramel, butterscotch and a light toasty quality. A very nice example of the style.

Oct 18, 2008 Draught at Old Dominion Brewhouse, Washington DC
Light amber color. Some malt aroma, some malt, caramel and cereals flavor, medium body, light residual sweetness, correct bitterness... very simple, it reminds me some bottled Amber from Europe, not an Oktoberfest.

Oct 12, 2008 pours a decent looking amber color with an off-white head. Aroma is super malty and sweet. A little bit of biscuit and bread dough. Flavor is more of the same. Pretty clean finish, but just a touch on the sweet side. Definitely better octoberfests out there.

Sep 22, 2008 Typical American ice cream parlor flavored brewery stuff. Not real beer by European standards. No head, sweet and sticky metallic aftertaste. Dark amber in color, sweet smell.
