Brewed with Hallertau and Tettnang hops to balance its clean, malty sweetness, it's the perfect brew for a crisp Autumn day. Available from September to November.

12 oz. bottle from Sam’s Quik Shop in Durham. Pours a hazy golden brown with a one finger head and low head retention. Toasted malts in the nose with some acrid, metallic vibes. Aroma is weak malts dominated by a tart hoppiness. And good lord, is that adobo? Medium bodied, and a poor offering from Otter Creek.

Very thin, simple, basic drinking beer. Hints of orange and a little bit sour. Tastes fermented. this is my least favorite of Victory Festbier and Blue Point Oktoberfest beers. This beer kind of blows actually, but it’s not *too* bad. Reminds me of the Otter Creek White Sail that we had with Todd up in the big house. I thought of that before I realized it was both Otter Creek

Pours a light, clear amber with short lived offwhite head. Smell is slightly toasty, dusty malt and kind of yeasty and lager like. Taste is yeasy and some lightly toasted, bready malt. Light hints of lemony tea, and fruit. Decent and drinkable, but wouldn’t get again.

Copper color with white head. Not much flavor or aroma. Taste like any other ale. Good but not what I was expecting with an Oktoberfest

12 OZ. single bottle from Total Wine in Jacksonville, FL. Pours a light copper color with a white head. Aroma is flat, nothing too noteworthy. Taste is light roasted malt with a hop touch. Meh.
