Growler shared with the guys at Hangar 24..Pours a clear copper with a thin head.. Aroma was slightly sweet and bready... Not much in the way of flavor other than slightly bready but still very drinkable. Not bad.

Nov 4, 2009 2nd growler from big Rich shared at H24. Rating #5. Nice light amber color. Real nice bready aroma, just what I like in an octoberfest beer. Flavor was a little thin, lightly malty, but another real good drinker. (1055)

Mar 10, 2006 Pours a med. copper, clear, with a minimal white head. Aroma is lite bread, some diacetyl, no sulphur. Descent caramelization. Body is downright thin with a semi-sweet palate. The flavors are mildly fruity with some breadiness but not as much as I would have expected. The finish has no hops. This is a hard style to do when not equiped with a triple decoction system and this is another example that misses the mark because of a single infusion mash. Just really lacking in the maltiness expected from the style.

Oct 31, 2005 Draught in Colorado Springs. Pours mahagony - maple brown with a frothy tan head and spotty lacing. Caramel nutty light roasted malt and yeast aroma. Sour malt (meal, straw) and sweet dough yeast flavor. Medium bodied and smooth, clean palate.

Nov 5, 2004 Draught at the taproom in Albuquerque on two occasions. Clear copper body with mild carbonation and a minimal off-white head. Malty nose of caramel, dark bread crusts, and a light chocolate note. Flavor has an odd roasty character for an Oktoberfest (or a mocktoberfest) with noticeable caramelization and citrus and earthy qualities. The combination of flavor is somewhat discordant. Unlike any beer I’ve ever sampled. In a blind tasting, I think I would have pegged this as a roasty brown ale.
