Nov 21, 2009 A ringwood-yeast aroma, with some butterscotch. An earthy ale malt in the nose.
The appearance is cloudy amber orange. Big puffy head. Tons of carbonation. Big and thick; perfect.
The flavor is more butterscotch with some earthy, soil-tinged flavors. A pub ale with a flowery hop. Sweet caramel.
Feels buttery and smooth. No bite. Might be a tad old but it’s only November. A decent ale, just might not hold up very long.

Nov 20, 2009 12 oz. bottle, trade with mrbunn. Still got a ton of cellared Weyerbachers, but here’s one needing to be drunk fresh. Roasty and toasty honey malt smell as soon as it’s opened. Pours a slightly hazy orangish brown in a Sam Adams glass, thick head quickly becomes a light layer of beer foam. First taste impression is a little bit watery, but almost right away it brings in some caramel and toffee. German hops are pitched straight at the big malts. Kind of doubt there are many German Oktoberfests this malty. Very enjoyable. This showcases Oktos as a great style for beer of medium strength.

Nov 8, 2009 For the Marzen style, this is a decent brew. A good malt and bready nose rises from a mahogany colored body. The classic Octoberfest flavor is present in the Autumn Fest, this one carries a slightly sweet, burnt caramel taste. A rather weak, watery mouthfeel rounds out the beer. CP

Oct 22, 2009 Dark amber cloudy brew with a thin white head, sweet aroma, and wonderful creamy balance of malt and roasted chestnuts that has you looking forward to autumn and even winter.

Oct 18, 2009 Bottle. Pours a clear amber with a small white head. Aroma of sugar, sweet malt, dark fruits. Flavor is also quite sweet with toffee, dark fruits, caramel, raisins, prunes. This is just too sweet and sugary for me, and hard to get through. Blech.

Oct 13, 2009 Poured to a hazy reddish brown with nice off white head that lingers well and leaves good lacing. Nose and mouth were both faint, but what was present was a nice blend of malty dark fruit, with a hint of toffee and caramel. Smooth mouthfeel and a pleasant finish. While nothing strong stuck out, this was an enjoyable beer.
