garrison (433), Cin. city, Ohio, USA Sep 22, 2007 Draft mug from on tap at the brewpub - This one pours a dark mahogany brew with a tan head of lasting foam and a distinctly caramel aroma. Tastewise, this a slight, watered-down marzen, alright but nothing to sing about.
DubC5000 (148), San Diego, California, USA Sep 24, 2008 Rock Bottom La Jolla. Great oktoberfest, refreshing, sweet, and clean, with only the slightest bite. Deep amber in color, with a leafy, malty aroma and malty flavor with perfectly balanced carbonation. Quite a good beer IMO. heemer77 (3782), Savannah, Missouri, USA Sep 22, 2008 On tap in Minneapolis. The abv was listed at 6.2%. The body was deep copper colored with an offwhite head. The aroma was caramel and apples. There was also some hay. The taste was toffee and leathery with some light apple core. ok, but lacks malt backbone even for an Ofest. Soonah (519), Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA Sep 20, 2008 On tap at the Long Beach location. The pour was pale amber with a scant white head with no lacing. The aroma was malty, no real spice or hops helping out. The flavor was malt and light spice. Thin, unexciting mouthfeel. Tasted like a microbrew pale lager with food coloring added. joeymacaroni (141), West Chester, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 20, 2008 tap@ King of Prussia location. pours light copper-orange. nose of fruit, malty caramel, bread. Flavor is heavy malt and bread dough with a bitter floral hop backbone. Aftertaste is malty, bready. Easy drinker, medium carbonation. dlovell2 (110), Columbia, Maryland, USA Oct 25, 2007 Mug Club Bethesda, MD. Amber color with white head. Caramel Malt flavor with crisp hop finish. This is the beer that first got me interested in craft beers 4 years ago, so every year I make sure I go back for a mug or two.
