Sweet spicy malt aroma with notes of toffee and caramel. Powerful spicy malt taste; good hop bite, hints of caramel, smoke & alcohol. Long lingering hoppy aftertaste. Full mouthfeel.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 28, 2009 Bottle. Had this one many times before but have never rated until cracking the first bottle of the 2009 season tonight. Nice malty and slightly sweet aroma, and a nice pumpkin/amber color pour. Flavor is plenty of rich caramel maltiness and a finish that pleasantly lingers. I know this one doesn’t have the best ratings on this site, but it is still one of my favorite Oktoberfest beers.
