| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 9, 2008 From the Bolingbrook, IL location: Poured from a growler into a double-walled pint glass. Pour produced a cloudy yellow-brown body with very little head or lacing. Aroma is slightly fruity, and flavor a little sweet. Palate doesn’t really stand out, but is easy enough to drink.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Oct 4, 2008 Cloudy beige with a thick head. Fresh toasty nose with light yeastiness. Kellerbier accented. Very toasty on the palate with light yeast notes, maybe a hint of phenols. A little overcarbonated, like they all seem to be at the Miami location. Doesn’t quite come together beyond that little bit of fresh toastiness. Beershine (2710), Where Climate Suits My Clothes, Vietnam
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 4, 2008 @ Miami. Hazy dark salmon color with thick foamy head. Fresh fruity aromas, spritzy with lemon-lime and ginger ale notes. Aerated, highly carbonated palate is quaffable but gassy. Solid, with admirable authenticity in terms of fresh bread and apple juice flavors. Toasty and a little sparged but good, all things considered. rayOfBeer (319), El Cerrito, California, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 2, 2008 Poured from tap at the brewery a copper brown with a thin white head. Aroma is slightly yeasty, tart grain, and caramel. Flavor is toasted bread, nutty, caramel and dry with a mild tart/bitter finish. Ok beer overall with decent flavor but nothing special. alexanderj (2264), Chino Hills, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 27, 2008 On tap at Mission Valley location. Color was copper with a white head. Aroma was pretty spot on for the style; caramel, sweetish malt and a bit of german hops. Flavor was just decent. A little bit mellower than most of the style, with probably just a bit more hopping than most. Rather forgettable. bb (2919), Martinez, California, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 23, 2008 Bottle. Amber beer with a cream colored head. Spice, earth, and malt aroma. Spice, earth, and light caramel flavor. Medium body. Mineral, caramel, and spice linger - not as much caramel as many octoberfests. MIBRomeo (1965), Wisconsin, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Sep 16, 2008 not really worth a rating. tried this as a beer whore and didn’t really enjoy anything there. phishpond417 (1953), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jun 13, 2008 This brew pours an amber body with a thin head. overly malted and unbalanced with a slight hop finish. cherries and licorice in the aroma, a dissapointing marzen.
