| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 14, 2009 Location: We have a bunch of these in the metro DC area, I think I’ve prob been to 3 of them, including the one in "Downtown Rockville" that I visit pretty often, I’ve had this one on tap there, specifically enjoyed quite a few these that first fall when the Rockville one opened...
Overall Impression:
I think is probably the best thing I’ve had from GB, it’s a really sold example of the style (where as most of their beers are average or sub par for their respective styles). It’s a nice enjoyable beer for the Oktoberfest season. hayduke (1677), Eureka, California, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 20, 2009 From a six pack on sale at Bevmo for $6.99 this 12 oz bottle poured a cloudy orange with dingy head and light lacing. Nose of caramel malts and very light floral and citrus hops. Mouthfeel medium Flavor is mostly malts. Quite drinkable. BelgianBeerGal (1322), Sabbatical in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jan 2, 2009 Bottle. Fest bier, really? Not quite. Not bad, just not really on par with other more traditional fest beers. Very thin profile of malt and caramel where I would expect more. marcus (1902), Sacramento, California, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Dec 12, 2008 This orange beer poured with a decent foamy off-white head. There is a decent caramel malt flavor with some hop bitterness at the finish. Drinkable but not remarkable. 12 bhensonb (4374), Woodland, California, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Dec 9, 2008 Bottle from Total Wine in Roseville. Orangey color with a decent beige head. Smells lightly spicey. Medium body with frothy carbonation. Flavor is malt with spicey hop. Not a bad beer. scanman (146), Santa Cruz, California, USA
