Oct 6, 2008 Off Taps Capital Ale House. Nice malty caramel aroma with some grassy continental hop notes. Can’t see the beer for the ceramic mug. Nice clean malt accentuated flavor. Crisp slightly bitter finish. A tasty beer by all accounts.

Oct 5, 2008 12oz bottle: pours a light, straw-yellow with foamy white head. Able to detect some malt in the aroma but it was over-powered by a corn syrup smell. Some nutty malt in the initial flavor but it dulls into nothing more than a macro lager. Not what I expected from an Octoberfest-Marzen style.

Oct 5, 2008 (Bottle @ Stag’s Head): Body is a very clear yellow, body, extremely pale yellow. Foamy white head, lasting-ish. Malty aroma, nutty almosct grass-like. Malty taste, nutty, lawn-like. Some fizziness. Not good.

Oct 4, 2008 Pours gold into a stein. Bright white head quickly recedes to hug rim. Cookie aromas. Crisp with upfront sweet malts and a dry, hoppy finish.

Nice lacing. Golden and sparkly. Fresh, bready aroma is quite full, sweet and only slightly toasty. Slightly toasty palate with a nice bready character. Sweet, slightly creamy body. Off-dry finish.
