Spab (1646) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - OCT 26, 2008
Draught at the Beerbistro. Pours a light yellow colour with a slight white head. Nose of yeast and sweet malt. Flavour is malt, grains and yeast. Lightish body. Ok, but definitely nothing special.

tgncc (2296) - Bellmore, New York, USA - OCT 1, 2008
The aroma has a stale, earthy smell of cereal grains, malts. The appearance is the reddish/orange of an Oktoberfest. The flavor is again mostly the malted barley, very cereal-like and not very pleasant. The finish is entirely unremarkable, mostly malts. This is one of the weaker Oktoberfest/marzens.

On draft at Mr. Dunderbaks. Cereal, cereal, cereal. Very complex in the chex arena with nice yeasty and cereal flavors throught. Nice malty balance, but low on hops. Tasty! Pours golden brown.

UPDATED: MAR 23, 2009 Copper color with a foamy white head. Rich caramel aroma. Malty body and a light hoppy bite with a roasted malt flavor.

kidmartinek (2466) - austin, Texas, USA - SEP 7, 2008
A dark brown barely clear lager that pours with a small tan head that disappears in a minute. The aroma is strong barley and rye. The flavor is very malty, grassy and full. The character, however is sharp and bitibg whilst being disagreeable. The finish taste like barley malt syrup from concentrate. This beer does remind you of the fall season though, primarily with its aroma.

fluffy (800) - St Petersburg, Florida, USA - SEP 6, 2008
pours amber with decent fine bubbled head. nicely malted with light caramel flavor and a decent bitterness on the tounge. recommended as a good quality oktoberfest.

Slipstream (1776) - USA - JAN 22, 2008
On tap at a German restaurant. A very nice lager! Full-flavored with the right amount of bitterness. Refreshing. The beer I ordered was simply called Hacker-Pschorr lager, so I assume this is the same stuff.

mabel (5043) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - DEC 29, 2007
[758-20071013] Tap @ West 50 (Mississauga, ON). Very faint aroma has hints of banana yeast. Clear, pale yellow body with a quick foamy white head. Bland yeasty flavour has a weird straw characteristic. Light body is kind of watery. Mediocre.

A good head with a malty aroma coming off the beer. The beer is a copper orange color. The taste is very balanced between a slight hops and malt. Enjoyed this beer very much
