| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Dec 23, 2009 I love Oktoberfest beers. But when I uncapped this beast, it was pure skunk aroma. The color is light orange with a small white head. The flavor is not what I want with an Oktoberfest, very light body. The taste is dominated by the skunk flavor. Well, I tried it. philbertk (101), Seattle, Washington, USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 9, 2009 Bottle ( 500ml ). Pale clear gold, huge fluffy lasting slightly off-white head. Pretty dull aroma, lightly floral, on the sweet side, grainy; not bad. Taste has more grain to it - oily, nicely and delicately balanced against fresh floral bitterness, not at all boozy. Light, slick, softly carbonated mouthfeel, very quick finish - overall a little light of body, but good with food and it goes down easy mannika (106), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | Dec 5, 2009 Pours a pale golden colour with thin white head. Aroma is of light hops and grains. Taste is a bit bitter, but overall not much there. Medium carbonation and a bit of a dry finish. Overall nothing spectacular. cfrancis (358), Gloucester, Ontario, Canada
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Dec 5, 2009 Non offensive but not really memorable. Pours a golden yellow with a thin white head. Taste is of malt, honey and a little hop bitter aftertaste. A little weak of a beer for a marzen, might have liked to have a little more spice in this but if you are pounding this at Oktoberfest, this will go down just fine.
