Smells and looks fine. This a pretty good oktoberfest. Not very grainy, sits well in the stomach. Good, just not all that interesting. like most in this style.

Pours clear amber with a small off-white head. Some caramel and malt. Nice but nothing special.

10/7/11. 12oz bottle. Dark golden pour, almost orange, with a barely off-white head that fades and laces a bit. Light caramel aroma with some grains. Slightly more flavorful - grainy, caramel, a bit dry. Could be better, but not terrible.

PhillyBeer2112 (2328) - Oviedo, Florida, USA - OCT 6, 2011
Just not very good. Fizzy soda pop like appearance and aroma, looks a whole lot like a cream soda. Mainly caramelly, with some squash-type vegetal notes.

Finhead (653) - OFallon, Illinois, USA - SEP 26, 2011
A clear, golden pour with a small white head. It has a very light aroma with some faint caramel. The medium body has lively carbonation. The taste is malty and earthy with a slightly dry finish.

On tap at Cole’s. So-so beer. A little bubby head on yellow body. A little funky aroma. Big carbonation. Decent mouthfeel.

Boliv (964) - New York, USA - SEP 14, 2011
Bottle. Pours clear orange and gold with a small light beige head. Aromas of sweet malt, caramel apple, and brown sugar. Bitter grass and wheat flavor, with some stale malt. High carbonation. Not great. [797]
