Clear brown with a small beige head formed. Sweet caramel aroma with something like licorice going on. Flavor is similar with more graininess, a bit of floral hops, and a sweet caramel finish. Pretty light body.

Light orange color with a small head. Aroma is sweet caramel malts and some mild spice with a hint of fruit. Flavor is sweet, grain, hint of wheat and some spice. A bit earthy, not bad.

Bottle. Pours amber orange with an off white head. Sweet bready malt aroma with some toasty notes. The flavor is malty with notes of toasted bread and a light sweetness. Pretty good.

This is a decent Oktoberfest style beer but not really my favorite. Still, not bad overall.

A very good Dunkel but why do they insist on calling it Dogtoberfest when Oktoberfest beers are supposed to be blonde? I don’t know. I poured it into my Budvar stein glass. Lovely dark ruby red colour texture. Smells of smoke; caramel and nuts. Tough doughy texture for drinkabilitiy. Also sense butterscotch however the alcohol is very moderate. I have an aged version and it is a good Dunkel but could be so much more. I would like to try this at the brewery. However a very good effort on the Dunkel style either way.

Dark beer with a good head, malty caramel aroma, malty with a hint of vanilla in the taste, very good, best beer with Oktoberfest / Märzen in the title I have had.

12oz bottle. Clear copper color. Aroma of malt. Hints of oak and honey scents. Far off in the distant nose is a touch of steamed vegetables. Flavor of bread, honey and a touch of wood. Lots of malt, nice toasted character, a touch of toffee. Well balanced. Finishes with a lingering toasted cereal and the slightest bit of grassy hops bitterness. Very nice.

Bottle at home: nice golden brown colouring. Small off-white head. Malty aroma. Flavour is of malts, bread and hops. Quite ok, not a winner imo.

Dry aroma, with honey and buiscuty, caramel notes. Almost perfect copper colour, with slightly orangy head. Flavour is dry and malty with a hop-bitter finish that lasts in the mouth.
