Aroma of fruits, mainly citrus, and hints of maltiness, Flavor is fruity and crisp, citrus, apple, apricot blend before the hops meet in the tail. Interesting take on the style.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 6, 2007 Can: Pale gold color, light head. nose of bright fruit, some apple and vanilla, odd urinal cake notes. The flavor is weird and medicinal, lots of herbal notes, odd urinal cake notes continue. Very herby. Ehh. Dansting (222), Overland Park, Kansas, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Nov 2, 2007 Can. Poured a clear copper color with a medium white head. Good lacing. Aroma is excellent, as it is hoppier than you’d imagine for an Oktoberfest (although for Surly, I guess it should be expected). As for that flavor, wow! I’m impressed. As a fan of the style, this is a much bolder flavor. It has the caramel and maltiness to it that I like, but it has a super hoppy finish to it.
I had my doubts from reading other reviews, but this is very nice. Thanks theisti!!! xmarcnolanx (793), Kirkwood, Missouri, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 1, 2007 This shit is good. Aroma is slightly dank onion and lagery. I can’t explain it, but it’s appealing.
Taste is slightly salty, oniony, just yummy.
Finishes clean and crisp, but nice and malty too. Jesus, I can’t write tonight.
This shit is good. Enough said. goldtwins (4080), Nesconset, New York, USA

Hoppy nose with nice pine aromas. Taste is doughy malt with rye, grass, melon, citrus....lots going on really. Good carbonation that leaves a great finish. Not really sure what style this is, but I really love it. Thanks T. ElGaucho (1730), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
