Commercial Description:
AUTUMN - Traditionally brewed to celebrate the harvest season, this reddish-brown lager has a rich caramel character and a long flavorful finish. Its delicious malty sweetness is nicely accented by a slightly fruity bouquet and a mild hop flavor.

Pours a dark amber color with an off-white head. Aroma is of caramel, sweet malts, dark fruits, and a hint of floral hops. Flavor starts off sweet with caramel, sweet malts, and dark fruits. Finishes with a very slight bitterness of the floral hops and some roasted malts. A pretty decent Oktoberfest that I enjoyed.

Pour is a dark brown with a average tan head. Aroma is a decent amount of dark malts and and under the radar hops. Flavor is all things malt. Very heavy and some caramel show up. An ok marzen. Like most from Sprecher they are always average but cheap.

Pours an acceptable orange/tan head with a deep amber color. Sweet malt, floral aroma with some spice. Sweet malt and caramel dominate the taste, as it does with many Sprecher brews. Kind of watery; not really enough of the character one expects with an Oktoberfest, but still quite tasty. Good example of the style, but not excellent.

Bottle... Hazy, dark amber lager with orange highlights and a small, creamy, off-white head. Good, tight retention. Malty, vinous nose of dried plum, caramel, fig and tawny port. Each sip presents gobs of caramel, light molasses and all kinds of dark fruit. Full-bodied and lightly creamy with soft carbonation. Sweet, sticky finish.

Pours a dark orangish burnt auburn with very little head. Nice ripe fruit, honey, biscuit, and light roasted malt. Powerful mouthfeel with a good dose of sweet biscuity malt and a very light floral and roasted character. Pretty good, but Sam is still better.

Pint bottle. Copper color, with a medium tan head. Very rich malt aroma, typical of a harvest season beer. Caramel dominating the aroma. Sweet, heavy and filling. This beer is a one bottle beer, as it fills you up.

Poured from a 16 ounce bottle into a pint glass, amber with a thin beige head. Aroma was very faint with a touch of malt. The taste was of light sweet malt and caramel and a nice balance of hops. Lightly carbonated wtih a creamy mouthfeel. A nice beer, but nothing spectacular.
