Commercial Description:
A sensational brew! This is Oktoberfest at its best. Its golden color, its powerful malt and its trace of sweetness, makes this the prime example of a true Oktoberfest beer. Aktien's Okotberfest beer is different from other Oktoberfest beers already on the market in the USA and it is a must to be tasted by any beer lover.

Bottled. A light golden beer with a white head - a bit light in color for an Oktoberfest. The aroma has notes of straw and hay on a lightly malty back ground. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, straw, and citrusy herbs, leading to a nicely bitter finish.

Clear light golden body with small white head. Aroma is medium sweet and grassy. Taste is medium sweet, tart, some caramel, grassy, light floral. Crisp light body. Much closer to a pilsner in style than a marzen. Quite enjoyable.

500ml bottle
Clear golden honey colored body with a small white head. Fresh hay in the nose, some squash, some crisp biscuit and cracker malts, and a light honey sweetness as well. Flavor is pretty similar, with lots of fresh cut hay, some dried leaves, some squash, and some pils malt. Very fresh, very tasty, nothing too overdone. Very nice.

Bottle from State Line. Dark straw in color, with aroma of caramel malt, hops, slight toffee and brown sugar. MEdium palate with flavors of caramelly grainy malt, brown sugar, some spicy floral notes, and some backup lemongrassy hops.

Bottle (newer/different labels). Head is initially average sized, frothy, white, mostly diminishing. Body is medium yellow. Aroma is moderately malty (cookie, bread), lightly to moderately hoppy (flowers, herbs), with light notes of honey and peach. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly to moderately sweet, lightly to moderately bitter. Medium body, watery/syrupy texture, lively carbonation. A bit too sweet for drinking much of, but it’s clean, juicy, and pleasant. This is of the golden-colored variety of festbiers (don’t expect a Vienna), which seems to throw Americans off for some reason. I’ve been rating this here in Colorado since 2002, and it still has only 25 ratings? Weird.

Rated this last night. Different and good. Will elaborate later, if I can do that from home. Bottle from Liquid Solutions in Portland, OR. Light golden color - but it is tinged with something that makes it quite attractive. The white head whiffed away at once. Warm malty aroma with a touch of hop. Medium body with creamy carbonation. Flavor is malty with a touch of yeast and some fruitness. Tends toward pale lager, malt liquor and something a bit darker than either of those. It varies. Unexpected flavors. Finishes non-bitter
