Dec 1, 2005 Bottle. Pours light copper with a minimal head. Flat and very light in flavor, almost watery. Not a typical Victory, but definately a loss.

Nov 28, 2005 bottle. translucent copper body with a small white head. aroma is full of rye bread, cereal, and caramel. starts out fairly hoppy, though it’s not overwhelming for the style, bready malt flavours. tasty stuff.

Nov 27, 2005 Candied malt aroma, orange hue, good sized custard head. Distinctive malt flavour, good hops also. Nicely balanced, pleasantly sweet, some breadiness too. Fairly good. Thanks mds.

Nov 25, 2005 This is the best oktoberfest I have ever tried. So smooth and tasty that no other beer of this style can come close to matching it! From the time the first wisps of aroma hit your nose to the last drop at the bottom of the glass, I was in beer heaven. Wonderful, wonderful beer!

Nov 23, 2005 Bottle (12oz). Poured clear amber with basically no head. Aroma of pumpkin, vague slightly sour malt, pretty mild. Taste is a bit harsh, grain, stale hops, some light roast malt - there’s almost a hint of orange juice behind this one - it’s actually quite quenching, in a watery, nicely vegetal, flat way. The weakest Victory I’ve yet had, but still not bad.

Nov 15, 2005 Bottle. I love Octoberfests, and this is one of my favorites. Nice amber pour with small head that dissipated quickly. The mouthfeel is very smooth and has just a touch of mild sweetness to it. I’d have no problem drinking this again.
