Nov 21, 2007 12 oz. bottle from courtesy of DarkElf - thanks Stephen. Pours deep reddish orange color with a moderate beige head that diminishes fairly quickly. Malty aroma, rich with very ripe summer fruits, hints of molasses, clover and floral hops. Flavor is also malty and rich, carrying through the same notes of the aroma, with a crisp, floral hop bitterness in the finish and aftertaste. Medium body and gentle carbonation. Nice, enjoyable quaff.

Nov 19, 2007 Bottled at Loch Ness, Stockholm. Copper colour, creamy head. Caramelly nose. Medium sweet with clean, rounded mouthfeel. Cardboardy malt dominates. Mushy mouthfeel. Modernized, simplified and dumbed down - all the things that characterizes production cost cuttings. The most disappointing German oktoberfestbier ever.

Nov 15, 2007 12 oz. bottle. Pours out a clear old gold color with a medium off white head. Aroma of malt and honey with small hop. Taste is also of honey and malt with a nice hop presence. Much stronger hop in the taste than in the aroma. Finishes with a little bite, but leaves no lacing behnd. A pretty good oktoberfest.

Nov 14, 2007 pours a caramel color with a 11/2 finger bubbly off white head. aroma is strong caramel malt with toffee and honey. has a medium body with ok lacing and descent carbonation. flavor is the same as aroma but a little stronger with a touch of hops showing through. has a small dry hop aftertaste, all in all not bad of an Oktoberfest. i would take this or capital over all of the Oktoberfests’ i have tried so far and readily available in the area.

Nov 4, 2007 $1 bottle at grottos on main. Have to say it was old because the date said 07.05 and it probably month/year. Tastes very sweet as you’d expect but you also get the toatsted malts in there too. Im giving this a better rating than i feel it deserves because it was old .

Nov 4, 2007 Still one of the best Oktoberfests i’ve had. I love the orangy color and the strong bold hoppy flavor. I could drink this all year round.

Very nice hoppy malty aromas, and flavours. A great hearty lager. Good malt notes. Very crisp, just a superb marzen.
