Sep 29, 2007 Amber with decent white head / Weak malt nose / Light body, dry, with fair finish / Flavors of honeyed grain, pilsner-like, with a touch of burnt sugar on the finish / Possibly more in the German style, but weak compared to American Oktoberfests.

Sep 29, 2007 I’m not very experienced with the Oktoberfest style but this was quite tasty. Roasty, warm & malty. A nice standard, drinkable beer.

Sep 28, 2007 Pours a burnt gold color with a mild skunky nose and a nice bite of malt. This one is a typical German Lager, its a little too carbonated, but it gets better as it warms. There is some caramel flavor in this but everything is pretty milld. It goes down extremely smooth, and its just a well rounded marzen beer. Nothing special, but they stayed true to form on this one. I could see myself drinking a couple of these on a fall saturday.

Sep 28, 2007 On draught : Pours a copper amber color, semi-clear, with finger wide offwhite head. A spicey aroma with some malts. Taste is malty with spices, much like th aroma. Palate is thin to medium bodied, goes down smooth with a nice aftertaste.

Sep 27, 2007 No date on bottle. Pours copper color with sub-par head. Aroma is malty and maybe a little spicy. I think it’s a bit over-carbonated. Flavor is a bit on the dry side, which is fine with me. Maybe a little too simple. I wonder if my bottle wasn’t fresh enough; I’d love to try this on tap in Munich.

Sep 27, 2007 Pours medium amber with a small head. Aroma is a tad skunky at first but settles down pretty quick (thanks for using a green bottle). After the skunk goes away it is a nice sweet malt. Flavor is also quite malty with touches of grains and corn.

Sep 27, 2007 Grainy malt nose on the golden body. Lightly malted body that went down quite smooth.

Sep 26, 2007 Bottle. Body is a brownish amber and has a two finger high head when I get done pouring. Aromas are a little on the skunky side (think Becks) but not unsettling. Flavor is malt heavy and thin, at the same time. The caramel and bready malt dominates the palate with the hops picking up the finish with a slightly skunky and bitter note. Not bad, but a little thinner than my tastes would dictate.
