Into the glass pours a surprisingly bright and crystal clear beer. Looks really great, The smell is hoppy, fresh, very aromahoppy. The beginning part is very very sweet and very grainy, but the hops come through and turn good. The finish shows then again a trace of sweet and slightly grassy. Succeeded!

Bottle from Cracked Kettle, Amsterdam. Pours very pale golden with a large white head. Aroma of grassy hops and pale malt. Taste is weak sweet malts, moderate grassy hops, overall an ordinary Oktoberfest.

Bottle @ The Bon Accord. Grassy cereal hop aroma. Golden colour, fine head. Cereal corn flavour. Very average. Nice bottle.

@ Oktoberfest from the wooden barrel. Golden with a big thick head. Stupid Oktoberfest short pour :( Pale malt aroma with light typically Augustiner fruitiness. On the palate, more light fruitiness, yeast character and pale malt. Relatively sweet.

Bottled, from The Drink Store, Dublin, Ireland Clear pale golden, rich head. Buttery malt aroma. Sweet with above medium body and well rounded mouthfeel. Fairly deep buttery grainy malt, fairly low bitterness. Mild, fruity and solid. Very quaffable.

[Draft @ Capones] Pale golden color with a small, white head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of toasted malts, light grass, grains, toffee malts, and some citrus. Taste of light citrus, toast, somewhat stale grains, grass, and a drier finish. Nicer than the sweet, caramelly o-fests we get here, but didn’t really blow me away.

bottle. pretty good oktoberfest bier, a bit sweety taste but nice palate and color.

0,5 l bottle as a gift.
Pale golden, clear beer with a small creamy white head. Caramel, bready malt in the aroma with a mild hop and sourish yeast spiciness. Smooth mouthfeel with a sweetish caramel and malt based character, some vanilla and honey, bread, mild herbal hop in the finish.

UPDATED: OCT 12, 2010 [9/27/10] Bottle at a friend’s place in Amsterdam. Clear straw color with a small white head. Aroma of grassy noble hops, some hay and a bit of slightly grainy pale malt. Sweetish and slightly bready flavor at first, continues to a bitter, hoppy and slightly metallic finish. Light-medium-bodied. So-so.
