Sep 24, 2007 Green bottle pours a clear orange amber body with a modest white head. Spicy and floral hop aroma with a hint of wet cardboard. Light body feels somewhat watery. Toasty caramel malt and spicy hops taste. Not my favorite German fest bier.

Sep 23, 2007 On tap. Copper amber color. Light roasted malt aroma. Very Smooth, a toasty malt flavor, and German hops. Not too sweet and very balanced. Very drinkable with smooth finish with a little bite of hops, but never overly aggressive. Good beer!

Sep 23, 2007 Updated: Sep 27, 2007A good smooth drinking well balanced malty lager. Looks real good in a dimple mug....really easy drinking - better than Paulaner’s version for my palate.

Sep 22, 2007 Bottle: Smells skunky and off-putting. Pour is highly carbonated with a finger high head. The taste is malt and molasses. It was an okay beer, but I can’t get that skunky smell out of my taste buds.

Sep 20, 2007 Overall a good beer, drinks better warmer as it allows the sweeter flavors out. Drunk cold its really smooth but tastes more like a pilsen than a oktoberfest. Either way its a really beer.

Sep 20, 2007 I Love the Spaten for it’s drinkability, approachability and inexpensive tag. Oh yeah...it freakin’ tastes great! Oktoberfest beers done right are the most beautiful. This is very well balanced and not too sweet. You can have three or four in a row if you’re not careful. If you’re at a festival have more!

Sep 19, 2007 Tap. Pours a brown tinged gold, with a nice off white head floating on top. Nose is marginally malty and just smells like beer. Flavor is clean but nothing much happening. It is pretty underwhelming in every area, not unpleasent, just not much to speak of. I would pass on this in the future and this reaffirms that Oktoberfests are just not my thing.

Sep 18, 2007 Pours a copper color with very little white head. Aroma of grassiness with none of the caramel and fruitiness that you expect in a Marzen. The aroma is almost pilsner like. Taste is grass, light caramel, sweet bread, and very light fruit. This is almost like a marzen/pils hybrid.
