Ungstrup (11354), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 18, 2007 Bottled. A hazy orange-red beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of fruit - especially peaches, as well as notes of malt and berries. the flavor is sweet with notes of dusty German hops combined with light notes of alcohol, leading to a dry and slightly bitter finish. OK, but nothing special. Papsoe (10285), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 18, 2007 (Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of Skyview. Slightly hazy amber golden with a small, creamy, off-white head. Sweetish, malty nose. Medium body with lightly sweet malts and a somewhat biscuity touch. The finish is dry. Somewhat close to a Heller Bock. 171107 argo0 (6229), Washington DC, USA Sep 11, 2005 (12oz bottle) Crystal clear amber with small off-white head. Aroma is moderately sweet, evokes hefeweizen -- banana and wheat, with light spice, caramel. Taste is medium sweet, banana, some caramel, light spice, earthy. Light-medium body. Not bad, but not what I would call a traditional oktoberfest beer. Emil (6077), Copenhagen, Denmark Nov 21, 2007 Bottle. A amber beer with a off-white head. The aroma is of rye bread and caramel malt, the taste is sweet caramel malt, rye bread and light hoppy. Medium body with a sweet finish. CaptainCougar (4663), Rockville, Maryland, USA Jul 3, 2005 Pours a clear deep copper with a thin, fizzy white head. Aroma boasts lots of thick sweet caramel malt and a touch of noble hops and German lager yeastiness. Body starts very malty, sweet, and full with a good bittering hop balance toward a crisp, yet creamy, malty finish. A very enjoyable Oktoberfest.
