| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 23, 2006 A decent Oktoberfest with a kick to it. A deep copper color with a malty and hop aroma. For an Oktoberfest, this had too much hop, and that’s coming from a complete hop lover. It’s a good drinking beer, but needs more malt to be a better Oktoberfest. elektrogeist (158), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Sep 21, 2006 12oz bottle: Skunk and malt aroma, thin. Lacking that special something that makes a really good oktoberfest bier. Disappointing, but I guess I’ll drink it anyway. I’d rather have Ayinger’s about now.. PGA324 (85), Savage, Minnesota, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Sep 19, 2006 I did not care for this beer. Had an after taste I could do without. Again, similar to the Redhook Late Harvest, I expected more from a seasonal. Poured copper, with decent head, average lacing. grimreeser (797), Minnesota, USA

Nose is mildly hop aroma with nice medium malt. Taste is very malty with a hint of sweetness. Body is smooth. Afretaste is just a little grain. very nice beer. BenDover (128), Texas, USA

| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Sep 11, 2006 No head, dark brown, clear. Light vegetal aroma. Taste is german malt, lots of minerals, metallics. Lots of oxidation, increases in the finish. Like licking a piece of brass, yuck.
