The aroma is a little like pumpkin pie. I like pumpkin pie. It is golden orange with a white head. Nice flavor of malt pumpkin and spice. nice.

It’s a solid oktoberfest, hazy orange, mild aroma. Generally nicely balanced, drinkable, and pretty true to style, but nothing that really stands out.

12oz bottle courtesy of Buebie poured into a pint glass. This one pours a clear reddish amber with a small white head that dissipates to nothing quickly and leaves no lacing. The aroma is a mixture of toasted grains and sweet caramel. The taste is much sweeter than the aroma suggests with a massive caramel malt sweetness that dominates throughout. There is a bit of toasted bread character, but less than the aroma. The mouthfeel is fairly full-bodied for the style with very little carbonation - slick and a bit sticky. This is certainly not near the top of my list of oktoberfests, but it is quite drinkable for the ABV, which I never would have pegged at over 7%.

Sweet sugared heavy caramel and candy-corn flavored malt. The taste of oily hop extract coats the mouth. Simple and passable.

Bottle. Pours a dark amber with a medium sized head and sweet caramel aromas. Flavor is thick and sweet caramel malt with maple syrup. It’s borderline cloying and as it warms it gets more obnoxious.
