Oct 29, 2008 16oz. bottle: This one pours a clear, coppery amber color. Mine had a fairly decent tan head on it, but it drops away quickly and doesn’t leave any lacing. The aroma is decent enough. there are notes of caramel malts, and possibly some fruits and floral aromas. The taste is very clean. A little sweet, with a mild spiciness to it. Hints of dark fruit with the caramel malt. Very drinkable.

Oct 27, 2008 O’ Sprecher, where art thou....what a satisfying brew from these guys. Lightly toasted malt that is nutty with a sweet roll aroma. Rich auburn color with a lot of depth. Large lasting khaki head and heavy areas of lacing. Lively, sweet and filling. This beer can be knocked back with ease. Quite a robust fest bier, very flavorful and agreeable. Initially fruity coupled by a mild yeast quality. Biscuits and nuts coupled with a spicy, floral hop flavor. Impressive is an understatement, this may be my new #1 Oktoberfest.

Oct 4, 2008 12oz bottle. clear amber pour with an off-white head. aroma of sweet malts and caramel. taste follows suit - smooth and crisp caramel and dark fruit. pretty straightforward stuff here - syrupy with light tingly carbonation. good but not great.

Oct 4, 2008 16 oz bottle. Pours a rich copper/brown color with a beige head that give a decent amount of lacing but falls rather fast. Nose is rich caramel malt aromas with bit of a sugary sweetness. Flavor is over powered by malt with a touch of graininess to it. There is a slight caramel background note to it but it is not as prevalent as I would like, but.....it’s not up to me. The full body on this beer is nice and it goes down smooth and has a bit of warming to it with the 6% ABV. Overall nice beer.
