Oct 2, 2009 Bottle pours brown amber color with little to no head. The malt is amazing with this beer. In both the nose and the taste along wth some spices and finishes dry with the hops. Mouthfeel is big malts and low carbonation. This is what an Oktoberfest should be.

Sep 27, 2009 Aroma of sourdough, nutmeg and ripe orange. Appearance is red copper with an off tan head that stuck around. Flavor is sour with some hop presence, perhaps squash and potato and more nutmeg, nice hop finish. Palate is lively and bubbly. Outstanding beer.

Sep 25, 2009 22 oz. bomber ). Deep ruby-brown with a thin mother-of-pearl head. Certainly looks gorgeous. Faint nose belies intense malt flavor. The hops balance it out pretty well, but there’s little you can do about the alcohol. I always Oktoberfest beers were brewed for massive consumption (as in a lot per day) but this Imperial should be treated with kid gloves.

Sep 22, 2009 Copper color, malty aroma with a slight citrus note to it. Foamy white head. Very sweet flavor, malty and slight hops to the taste. A bit of lemon in the finish. Lots of IPA elements to this Oktoberfest which makes it very unique.

Sep 21, 2009 2008 version. Pours a light copper color with a big off white head and a lot of carbonation. Nose is blank, not much in the way of malt at all. A little nut and caramel makes it way through as it warms. Definite round malty flavor. Spice, caramel and a big touch of alcohol. It was made the way they wanted it and is well made. I will stick with Ayinger when I want an Oktoberfest. Too overdone for this style.
