Draught at BrewPub as "Uncle Fester": Aroma of malts, dry leaves, and a hint of nuts. Poured amber/brown in color with a small, off-white head that diminished but lasted around the edges. Hazy. Sparkling. Lightly sweet flavor. Tastes of fruit, malts, peach, and a hint of nuts. Light to medium body. Dry texture. Average carbonation. Fruity finish. An Oktoberfest?

On draft at the brewpub. One of the nicer offerings from my sampler, good enough to get a growler of. Fairly standard O-fest in every way. Amber color, small diminishing head. Smell and taste of warm bread, spicy hops, and a hint of pencil shavings. Would definitely drink again.

tad of a sweet aroma, didn’t really have much of a defining taste, good body, maybe a bit of spice

Draft called Uncle Fester. Poured clear light copper in color with a small beige head. Light bready aroma. Tastes lightly bready, light grainy, slight caramel sweetness and slightly earthy. The finish was dry and lightly spiced. I’m not a huge Oktoberfest fan, but this one wasn’t bad.

Aroma was on the lighter side as it is for fest beers, but was a nice range of bread, biscuity, and slight caramel. flavor was full of the same notes. medium bodied. a great fest beer with plenty of melanoidins and dry enough to be very drinkable.

On draught at the brewer, under the name "Uncle Fester". Dark amber pour that leaves webbed lace. The malty nose remains somewhat dry. Pale Crystal in the flavor lends some biscuit and toast notes. The finish is somewhat metallic, and very reminiscent of copper. The palate remains semi-dry. Medium light embodiment... Drinkable, yet not exciting.

Deep brass color a hue or two deeper than their pale ale. MIld malt aroma. Simple brew with some residual sugariness on the finish. Drinks like a blandish, but balanced amber.

Pours a translucent amber with golden notes and an average off white creamy head. Aroma of grains, pretzels and light citrus notes. Flavor of cereal grains some malty sweetness and light citrus. Touch of caramel malt.
