Jul 2, 2009 Overall Impression:
A decent example of the Octoberfest style. Nothing too over the top exciting about this one, but it is drinkable and fits the season.

Jun 25, 2009 Dark amber with a small white head. Sweet aroma and a very sweet taste with malts dominating. Hardly any bitterness until the aftertaste, which also has quite a bit of alcohol. Just OK.

May 15, 2009 This poured a clear amber color with a normal sized white head. Aroma was thick and malty and bready as well. Flavor was malty, bready, some caraml hints too. Nothing special but I didnt expect much from this style.

Apr 21, 2009 355ml bottle. BB 07.08.09.
It’s a Marzen ale apparently? Hmmm...
Attractive looking amber body with smooth, creamy beige head that clings to the side.
Particularly nutty malt aroma. Plenty of caramel and toffee, subtle roastiness, cereally grain, vanilla and hint of floral hop.
Smooth full body, carbonation is moderate, creamy texture coats mouth with a slight lingering bitter dry note.
Malt drives the body; plenty of sweet biscuit, caramel, roasted nuts, subtle bitter orange and spice. Finishes with a moderate balancing bitterness and bready dryness.
A tasty "ale" indeed. I quite enjoy this style when it’s made with a nice robust malt body, and this one certainly delivers. Nice!

Mar 15, 2009 pours a rich caramel color. The head is offwhite and shortlived with moderate lacing. Lots of malt aroma. Lots of texture on the palate. Very enjoyable with good sweet maltiness and a good balanced finish.
