Pours out with a light brown color with zilch for head. The aroma has a slight hint of malt; not as much as one would thikn for an Oktoberfest. Actually, that applies to the taste as well. It seemed like a watered down version of what it should be. Disappointed.

Very nice Oktober simple aroma and light head with a rich sweet though quickly dissipating malty flavor.

Rusty copper color with a browned-meringue colored head. Aroma has medium-roast malt and some squashy notes. Some mild hop spice as well. Peppery roughness pervades the taste along with some malt sweetness. Meh.

Brownish amber color with only a little head present. Aroma has some malt, herbs, vegetable bits to it. Flavor is smooth and a bit sweet, but mostly a heartier flavor to it. Actually has a good complexity to the flavor, but the palate isnt quite as good. There is a lasting bitterness to it that could use a little improvement.

Head is small and fizzy. Body is a somewhat dark reddish copper. Aroma is light... man... like a fruity sulphuric acid thing. Weird. Overall flavor is caramel sweet with light grapefruit like hops in the background. For some reason I was afraid I wouldn't like this beer at first, but I actually rather enjoyed it. It was a little sweet, but I still felt the sweetness and the hops had a good balance.
RERATE: Didn't want to change anymore of the above, but I have to mention the sulphuric acid taste. That seems off. But in general, it is overly sweet. What's up? Downgraded to a 10 overall for now.

Clear amber with a large bubbled tan head. Smells like stale and musty vegetables and sweet corn, with some sweet bourbon aromas. Creamy palate, along with a sweet honey flavor. Ok, not great.
