| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 8, 2007 Spaten makes some pretty badass brews, this one is no exception. Hazy pour, malty, surprisingly easy to drink. Maybe my favorite okt. scottyw (46), Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 5, 2007 The sum is not quite equal to the parts. The aroma and taste is good, but something is just lacking. Very flat. Vav (13), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 4, 2007 I’d call this one average across the board. Average taste especially...not too spicy nor dull. Slightly skunky nose. mikey (336), farmington, Utah, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 4, 2007 Poured a nice orange/amber color with a decent white foam head. The nose was sweet with nutty malts as well as a light citric hop twang. The taste started with some sweet caramel and nutty notes with a distinct fruitiness throughout. The finish was dry and had a good spicy/citric hop presence. This was a pretty decent autumn beer. It wasn’t exciting in any way, but worth a try. sneezey (110), Hackettstown, New Jersey, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Sep 2, 2007 Yet another good Spaten product - solid malty flavor comes through with little else around it. Miss a bit of the Bavarian character others have, but still entirely respectable beer. kp (8399), Woodstock, Georgia, USA

sweetness fades quite a bit once it reaches room temp but still the rich carmel malt

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 30, 2007 On draft at the Saucer. Pours a deep copper with a lasting off-white head. Aroma dominated by lightly kilned malts. Taste is sweet with caramel, balanced by noble German hops with herbal/minty character. Very satisfying. riversideAK (2727), Shoreline, Washington, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 30, 2007 Notes of caramel malts and a little nuttiness in the nose. Pours amber in color. Very malt forward with flavors of caramel and a little roast followed by a sweet breadiness. Finishes crisp. A very good oktoberfest bier.
