rerate at the 11th. Malty up front, with a spicy back, a vast improvement. very tasty I had this on tap at the brewery’s 10th anniversary celebration. This is a dark amber pour with some maltiness. Not a big beer, but tasty.

Tap, O’Brien’s. Pours a brownish color. Kind of like watered down Coke. Stong roasty aroma with malts and a little chocolate. Rich roasted malt/chocolate flavors. Finish is malty and bitter.

Tap at the brew store. Clear amber color with a large beige head. Caramel and toffee notes in the aroma. The flavor was malty with some nutty notes.Citrusy hop finish. Nice bitterness and dry.

Tasted during the San Diego Fesival of Beer. Nice sample of an Octokerfest. Lots of malty spicy aromas. Similar flavor. Nice and smooth. Maybe one of my favorite of the style.
