Draft at GC Rockford. Pours a clear amber with minimal white head. Aroma of caramel malt. Taste is light sweet. Earthy leaves and caramel. Medium-light bodied with a slick texture. Lively carbonation and not much of a finish. Overall, ok. Pretty average Oktoberfest beer. Not something I would get again.

triguy84 (235) - Madison, Wisconsin, USA - DEC 15, 2011
Pours clear copper & a thin head - I’d like this a little darker. Moderate malt aroma. Moderate malt flavor. Medium-light body, light hop bitterness. An average Oktoberfest, needs more flavor & body.

Rich copper body with a light off white head. Nose of fall leaves and caramel. There is also some fresh dough. The taste is fall leaves with some bread crust. There is also a bit of apple sweetness. Decent.

Sample at KC Beerfest 10-22. Comes amber/orange with a small biege head. Mild aroma of sweet malt. Taste is malt and caramel. Nothing special but OK.

Tap. Clear orange pour with a small white head. Bready caramel nose and taste. Thin palate. Decent Octoberfest but not great.

jandd1983 (938) - Florissant, Missouri, USA - SEP 19, 2011
It poured an orangeish color with a white head. The aroma was of caramel malt. The flavor was malty sweetness with minimal hops presence. A decent Oktoberfest beverage.

growler thanks to my father in law, pours caramel with a medium light tan head. Aroma is caramel malts and toffee with grassy hops. Flavor is sweet caramel and hay with a mild evergreen hop finish. A little too sweet to style, but still drinkable.
