Oct 11, 2007 Not too much aroma. This is nice. Has a crisp dry bite up front but with a fair amount of malty sweetness. Yum.

Oct 8, 2007 Appearance: Pours a medium copper body with a bubbly, white head.
Smell: Musty grain aroma with hints of oven-toasted crackers and toffee.
Taste: A follow through of the aroma, the flavor consists of musty grains, crackers, and toffee. Decidedly balanced, as both the sweetness and floral hop bitterness remain relatively light. However, there is a tiny squirt of lemon in the finish.
Mouthfeel: Meium-thin body. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: This one really puts the OK in Oktoberfest!

Oct 8, 2007 12oz bottle. Aroma is toasty malt with a little hops on the nose. Dark amber hue with a mostly diminishing off-white head that left virtually no lace. Flavor is malts and a little hop bitterness on the finish. Palate is soft and watery. Another crappy Oktoberfest brew that I hope I never see again.

Oct 7, 2007 12 oz. Bottle. Very malty, with a medium body. More hop than a typical Märzen or Oktoberfest.

Oct 1, 2007 Updated: Oct 16, 2007Thin body, nice sweet, sugar cookie malt base. Slightly caramel with some slight bitter toffee. Malt is pleasant but thin and has a bit of a light hop flavor finish.

Oct 1, 2007 Bottle. Pours with a nice copper color and a medium head. Nice malty aromas. Flavors of caramel and toffee and some berries. Somewhat sweet with more malts in the finsih.

Sep 27, 2007 Nice amber body, but mine didn’t come with much of a head. Not much lace to speak of, either :(
I wasn’t all that impressed with the aroma. Oddly, mine had sort of a musty, tinny / metallic smell, if you can imagine that. I can definitely detect the malt, but that other aroma seems to dominate.
The flavor is pretty good, as the caramel malt presence is very noticeable. Hops are quite prominent, as well, and the aftertaste reminds me of a very mild dark chocolate. The carbonation is very good.
Overall, not too bad, but I think the aroma could be improved on.

Sep 26, 2007 This beer pours a nice copper color with a yellow gold head. Unique color there. Aroma is delicious. It is full of malt. Flavor is also malty but with a hint of balancing hop. Those add a touch of bitterness but this is a sweet beer. Some roasted notes give hints of a porter. Finishes with some toffee. Nice beer.
