Dec 13, 2005 12 oz bottle. Pours a dark copper, clear, and with a fizzy bone-white head. Nice nutty and and toased malt aroma. Clean crisp flavor, heavy on the toasted malt, minimal on the hops, with a slightly sweet nutty finish. Lighter bodied and a little fizzy on the tongue, but that’s what you get from this style. Overall a pretty decent beer. Basic, but very drinkable with no real faults.

Dec 2, 2005 Another 12 oz. bottle from kramer17801. Thanks. Golden amber pour with a pretty good sized head. Aroma was malty, with just a little sweetness. Flavor was down a bit from the nose. More malts, and some lingering bitterness. Not bad.

Nov 14, 2005 Pours to a deep copper color with a thick creamy white head. Nice lacing. The aroma is caramel and is quite grainy. Lager indeed. There are also apparent earthen hops. Butter. The flavor is very malty. I think this is bordering on Marzen. Buttered bread and squash? Fest characteristics. The palate is creamy and nice. Has some lactose? This is perhaps the best Premium Lager I’ve had.

Nov 9, 2005 Beer pours an attractive copper color with a slowly dissipating off white colored head. Aroma sends off notes of caramel malt and some nuts. Flavor is a bit restrained, but does indeed remind one of a Marzen. Nice malty breadiness with a hint of caramel and a nice lager taste. They did not rush this one. I agree with the comments of maltdog in reference to the Oktoberfest nature of this beer. This is much more of an Oktoberfest than the Aktien I drank the other day. Very nice lager.

Oct 31, 2005 Attractive beige fluff floats atop the brilliant copper body. Gauzy sheets of finely beaded lace coat the glass. Aromas of nutty malt, artisinal bread, hard candy, and hop spice. Nutty, toffeeish, buttery flavors accented by herbal and rye spiciness. As the chill dissipates, diacetyl becomes apparent in the nose and taste. Fullish mouthfeel, smooth and silky. Finishes clean with a flash of tart berry and just a kiss of malt aftertaste. To me, the beer sits squarely in O’fest territory.
