Please note that on my older reviews I used a 100 point scale. To make up for any scoring discrepancies, all palate and apearance scored are assigned a neutralized 3/5.

11/10/02: I had this and a few other oktoberfests at the same time. This one was a little bitter for an oktoberfest. I like mine more malty and full bodied. Still fun to try.

A good maltiness to this beer. I agree that this has a little more punch and bite than your typical Octoberfest. Very nice, may I have another!

One of my favorite domestic octoberfests. Sharp, clean, and slightly hoppy. Very pleasant mouthfeel. A bit tougher than the average octoberfest.

On the dark side for a Marzen. Malty nose. The body is very smooth. A little bit drier than most Marzens. A good but not great oktoberfest beer. Balanced hops.

Dark rich amber colour; moderately malty; nutty, toffeeish. Maybe my palate was shot, but to me this was not as well developed as the others I’ve had from this brewery.

Dark ruby brown with a generous beige head, large malt nose. Moderate carbonation, mild sweetness, and a touch of hops to finish off. Nice beer, as with all the beer from this really decent brewery, the beers are not over powering, but are quality brewed and quite a treat. Thanks once again Venom.
