tap at Mad Anthony Oktoberfest - Pours clear dark amber with a thin head. It has a very mild malt aroma. The flavor is caramel malt with just a touch of hops. It has a good light hops and caramel finish. The overall result is a decent session brew.

clear dark red, fine dirty white head, lots of spidery lace, light toasted and chocolate aroma, rich chocolate malt flavor, hint of roasted, nice nutty character, earthy hops keep it mostly dry with just a bit of sweetness coming through, light lingering bitter finish keeps some of the nutty character,

Very clingy, thin beige head, watery cola colored. Yeasty, milky aroma. Tangy, amateurish, overbrewed hops, out of balance. No nuts, no fruit. Like water that’s been run through an old coffee filter. Their red actually came off as a better brown.

Draft at Indy location. Rediish brown with medium off-white head. Well balanced aroma and medium flavor of malt, coffee and small hops. Medium texture with short finish.
