Poured amber in color with a creamy, off-white head that settle to a thin cover and left light lacing. The aroma was of caramel, spices, and a light roast. The flavor found chocolate and spices. Light body with a malty aftertaste.

Dec 1, 2009 bottle: Pours amber with creamy white head. Big caramel malt and toast finishes with a subtle hop kick and maybe some alcohol. Thirst-quenching.

Nov 27, 2009 Bottle from Arden Wines. Fizzing gold under a high white bloom. But it is in a Schneider Weisse trumpet. Sweetcorn relish, aspirin and mown grass aroma; blossomy hop and Munich biscuit once the head has gone. Papery and slick with a sprinkle of sherbet. Noble hops like pencil shavings, lemon curd on cardboard, breadstick dipped in honey. Disturbing Disprin-like aftertaste. Hops coniferous but industrial, malts bready but unassertive. Drab and efficient. Sorry.

Nov 26, 2009 Deep amber with a cream head. Caramel malts and bread aromas. Decent on the palate with an overly sweet caramel flavor and a doughy finish.

Nov 17, 2009 This is currently available in Australia as the "Oktoberfest Bier to go" with a 1 litre can inside a branded Stein glass. It pours clear bright golden with a substantial foamy white head that lasts for several minutes. The nose is grainy malts with sweetcorn and subtle grassy/citrus hops. Flavours are similar with a light-medium body and thin mouthfeel with low carbonation providing very easy sessionability (ie. the whole point of this beer). It is a good easy drinking beer but surely over-rated because of the "good times" associated with the consumption of it. At a well hidden 6%ABV, I can see why there are so many headaches in Munich every October!

Nov 12, 2009 Yellow, completely clear, with a rather big white head. Good head retention and nice lacings.
Light malts, white bread and a fresh mild herbal hop note in the nose.
The taste is rather sweet with malts and toast up front. Light but fresh grassy and herbal hop notes. The finish has some bitterness to it, a a quick hop flare and some malts. Clean and refreshing with decent flavors.
Moderate to light body, quite a lot of carbonation.
A decent beer.
