Received 12-oz bottle via trade with 5000. Pours a hazy caramel amber brew with a very thick and lumpy head that hold a retention that could last until tomorrow. Aroma of caramel malt, some light pear, sweet sugar cookie dough and a touch of roasted nuts. Taste is smooth, creamy, medium bodied, with flavors of light caramel malt, some apple/pear fuit, flowery hops and a touch of cotton candy. Finish is semi-sweet with a mild caramel aftertate that quickly disappears.

Jul 17, 2008 Bottle: Pours a copper bronze color with a nice sticky white head and clean sheets of lacing. The nose is sweet and floral, light toasted pumpkin seed and a grassy juniper and hop note with some peach, maybe some glue. The flavor is...I would put the mouthfeel first. A fizzy/fuzzy creaminess that makes each drink feel like a little fun snap on the tongue. The flavor is sweet and bready with some light fruit and continued doughiness. Finishes light and refreshing with a hint of fruit and spice. Nice oktoberfest.
