Dark orange to light copper sparkling pour with a light white head. Aroma of brown sugar and caramel. Flavor has some ripening vegetable notes with a sweet underlying caramel bite to it. Decenlty thick mouthfeel. Overall, not bad at all. badgerben (3605), Blaine, Minnesota, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Apr 18, 2005 Brown color with a medium head. Slightly spiced malt aroma. The taste wasn’t quite right... stale malt and grains with a muddle hop finish. Watery. Why the heck was this being served in spring? robertsreality (2460), Minnesota, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Apr 17, 2005 Gold/Brown Coloring with White Frothy Head. Light Spice Aroma..Carbonated...Grains..Sweet Malt and Some Hops at the End. Very Minimal Flavor and Aroma. But Not Offensive at the Same Time. Watery Overall.

| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Mar 18, 2005 Updated: May 26, 2005Rerate. Still one of the milder of its genre that I’ve had. Originally had thought there to be a nice traditional aroma but the latest tasting produced virtually no aroma, only producing the faintest accents of lime and hay. Taste is not smooth and malty as it was before: it’s more souring and acidic. This is closer to a pale lager. It doesn’t have the malt profile demanded for an Oktoberfest.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 2, 2005 Very middle of the road octoberfest (available yearound) that has a hint of roasted malt and VERY slight hop bite. JCapriotti (1378), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 4, 2005 Somewhat lasting white head, clear medium-dark amber color (like Jack Daniels maybe). Minimal malty aroma. Light flavor, but balanced with sweet grainy malt and slight, unintrusive hops. drywallman (230), Lake in the Hills, Illinois, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Sep 21, 2004 Clear dark brown body with just a slight layer of white head. Toasty malt with a little earthy almost rye bread flavor. The hops were appropriately bitter with a little bite. The finish was kind of dry for an Oktoberfest.

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jul 26, 2004 Clear dark amber body. Sweet toffee and grain dust in the aroma. Dark bread flavor with light stemmy hops. Oddly dry finish. Unremarkable.
