| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 7, 2007 Pours a dark prestine amber. Aroma is of caramel and roasted malts. Taste has a hint of caramel at first, then some bittnerness, and followed by the roasted malts. A bit too rich for me, but still good. holdenn (1446), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 5, 2007 12 oz bottle bought in WI at some liquor store i’ll put in here when i remember or when andrew bms me (whatever comes first) Pours a clear orange read with a white head that quickly fades to a ring. Nose isn’t too much to speak of. Toasted malts, marzen, carmel, and a touch of spice. Marzen carmelled flavors. Nutty and toasted with a finish that slightly bitter cloying and dirty. Hmm, I’m not usually a fan of this style, so hey maybe its me. iowaherkeye (1877), Los Angeles, California, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 5, 2007 12oz, no date--though I know it’s been bottled within the last month. Clear orange with hints of brown with a 1/2 finger off-white head. Aroma of nuts, toasted malts, caramel, and only a hint of floral hops. Flavor was fairly sweet--as most Oktoberfests are--and I couldn’t really pick up on any hops. Lots of caramel in the flavor along with some light toasted nuts and malts. Very low bitterness. Moderate creamy carbonation with a medium body. A very well-made Oktoberfest. BDR (2169), Roseville, Minnesota, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Oct 5, 2007 Thanks to Skyview for sharing. Light malt nose. Faint head. Orange color. Pretty standard lightly roasted caramel malt aroma and body. d 19641948 (491), Greensboro, North Carolina, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Oct 4, 2007 A treat. My favorite of this season, or for ANY year’s for that matter. A thick, hearty beer. Pours a rich orangey copper with a creamy light tan head. Steady carbonation, but it doesn’t make it spritzy or light; the thickness still holds up. Laces well. Aromas are a toasted nut lovefest. Enough sweetness to be observed and appreciated without distracting or detracting. FUll malty body. Hops barely temper things out as wanted. Again, full-bodied, creamy, nutty, toasty, malty. Forget the dubbels and Belgians, THIS beer is a meal in a glass. JK (2967), Richfield, Minnesota, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 30, 2007 This is an excellent oktoberfest. Flavor is more complex than most, and I get some wheat in addition to caramel malt and light spices. Dark orange color. Top of its style. brewblackhole (1385), Muskego, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 29, 2007 Aroma was toasty malt, a touch of apple,and just a little zing of hop,that being said you really had to troll your nose to pick up up any of this,taste was the slightly sweet flavor of German yeast,had a little bit of bitterness after the third sip, refreshing, a nice session brew,but nothing like you get at the German Beer Hall in Milwaukee KingpinIPA (842), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 26, 2007 Amber color. Smell of malt, bread, caramel, sugar and minor spice. Taste of caramel, malt, spice, bread, nuts and minor hops. Refreshing and crisp.
