Commercial Description:
AutumnFest is Weyerbachers own unique twist on the German Oktoberfest style. Copper-amber in color, AutumnFest is made with Vienna and Munich malts for that authentic, Bavarian easy drinking taste. Each sip imparts a wonderful roastiness of malt on the tongue followed by a smooth, consistent finish. Wonderfully balanced with a clean, velvety, slightly fruity taste, AutumnFest is the perfect beer for the Fall- a nice transition between the lighter beers of summer and the darker, heavier winter brews. It is a favorite of many Weyerbacher aficionados, who anticipate the end of summer with this wonderful beer. Weyerbacher AutumnFest (ABV 5.4%) is generally available in stores August through December. Pick up a case to celebrate the change of seasons. Prost!

Copper body with a large tan head. Aroma of caramel. Flavor is mild with light spice and more of the caramel. Maybe a little orange in there also. Not bad, not great.

12 oz Bottle-Poured copper/orange color w/an off white head. Good carbonation. Roasted malt aroma. Caramel, toffee, roasted malt, & some grain. Solid brew, very drinkable. Could easily be a sesson. Nice mouthfeel, finish of a little dark fruit & iced tea.

Pours copper with an off white head. Smells of citrus and some caramel. Taste is caramel and a little heavy on the hops for the style. Finish is earthy with a tea like aftertaste.

12 oz. bottle. Pours an almost copper with a moderate off-white head that lasted through about mid-glass. Light but pleasant aroma of caramel malt and grassy hops. Flavor is again light caramel malt and grassy hops with very light hops bitterness. Light on the tongue and very easy to drink.

In bottle at the 2nd annual Brass City Brew Fest. Apple aroma typical of some pale ales. Clear orange color. Mild smooth taste. Palate is creamy.

Bottle. Clear orange color with a medium head. Aroma of sweet grains and nuts with honey-like sweetness. Taste is fruity with grains and spice. A little sweet, but still a nice Autumn-minded beer.

THOUGHTS: I’m not much of a Marzen/Octoberfest fan, but this isn’t bad. But it is also one of Weyerbacher’s least unique brews. Not bad but not very memorable. TECHNICAL: Bottle. Poured a medium amber with fair carbonation and a small, sudsy, off-white head that mostly diminished and left virtually no lacing. The aroma was moderate caramel malt, moderate grassy hops, which come out more as it warmed, and a little bit of spice. The initial flavor was light to moderately sweet and lightly bitter, while the finish was moderately sweet and bitter and sour with an average duration. It was malty with a not too bitter hoppy finish. The sourness was an almost sour rye like sourness that became stronger as it warmed. The medium body was syrupy then tyrned dry with fizzy carbonation and a sour, somewhat metallic finsh.
