Pint can courtesy of Maximum12 (Cory, Beeradvocate) from our fantasy baseball league, Thanks! Nice Tall can, love the design. Poured an amber orange with lots of bubbly head, some stayed. Aroma jumps out at you, with a hoppy and malty scent. The taste is earthy, rye, grainy, malty, and a nice hoppy piney taste, medium body. This has got to be one of the best oktoberfet beers I’ve had.

Dec 27, 2009 Can, thanks Santa! Copper body, off white head that fades quickly. nose is some caramel, a bunch of melanoidin, rich malt (almost Flying Bison-esque), a little tea. Flavor is more of that rich malt then a nice hoppiness comes out - not complex but balancing. A bit of cherry and chocolate come out in the finish, along with continued maltiness.

Dec 22, 2009 Can courtesy of the magnanimous tytoanderso. Pours a clear caramel orange with a thin beige head. Lightly sweet caramel, touch of citrus hops, and a bit of spicy rye. Medium bodied, light grain, but not that acrid unpleasant graininess that weaker versions offer. Nice nutty malt and light caramel tones. Finishes with a crisp bitterness and some earthy sweet malt that lingers a while.

Dec 21, 2009 This beer is speaking to me. Caramel, leather and those green hats with a feather in the brim. Prost! Beautiful caramel color, no head though. Digging this Oktoberfest, dry, woodsy, leafy welcomed hops in the finish followed by raw earth. It’s how I would brew an Oktoberfest, wish I paired this with food.

Dec 19, 2009 Deep amber pour with light white head and lace. Aroma of caramel malt and a hint of earthy hops. Flavor caramel, paper, abv, and a nice bitter finish. Medium bodied and well carbonated. Very nice beer.

Dec 17, 2009 Can thanks to brian23456 (BA)!
Red-copper with a thin white head. A muted beer this is, light caramel and malt in the nose. Faintly grassy flavor with hints of nut and malt, significant rye notes. Nice body with a lasting finish. Pretty enjoyable and easy to pound, but not much as a conversation piece.

Nov 20, 2009 Can thanks to lufootball... Pours an orange brown with a thin lacing head...Aroma is nice with the oktoberfest yeast and the rye really comes through... Flavor is a combination of the oktoberfest yeast, rye and hops... This is a nice twist on the style that works pretty well.. Glad I got 3 more cans!!

Nov 16, 2009 Thanks to ditmier for this beer.
Poured from a can, this clear golden brown beer had a nice malty flavor which was complemented nicely by the spiciness of the rye. I very much enjoyed it and would drink it again.
