Commercial Description:
Our Oktoberfest is brewed to be vibrantly dimensional with burst of carmelized malts and hits of German noble hops. The super smooth, medium bodied complexity unfolds to finish with a lovely sweet malt profile. True to tradition this is a classic Oktoberfes...O'zapft is!

Bottle courtesy of ericandersnavy. Pours copper with a thin white head. Smells earthy and citrussy with a hint of residual sugar. Tastes of caramel, light spice and touches of pepper.

Pours with a hazy chestnut color with a quickly dissapearing off-white head. Caramel and corn aroma. Taste is fruity, metallic and bitter with some caramel. Fizze and dry.

12 oz. bottle courtesy of KAggie97. Pour is clear amber-copper with visible carbonation and a nice one inch off white head. Aroma of nice earthy spiciness and some sweetness. Taste has some sharp sweetness initially, that transitions smoothly into a drinkable thin palate and a clean finish. Some nice spicy hoppiness and earthiness throughout. On the label, this is called both a Lager and an Ale, so I am little bit confused, but regardless, nice drinkable beer.

Thanks to fly for this one. The pour is deep coppery with off-white head. I got caramel malt, some brown sugar, and some earthy peaty notes in the aroma, with the taste being primarily a somewhat dry heavy Wheaties malty taste coupled with some earthy, nutty, and brown sugar taste hints.
