Oct 28, 2007 12 oz bottle from Discount Liquors in WI. A 12 pack of these came with a free 1L glass. Its worth a try on that alone. Pours an amber caramel with a small head. Nose is marzen, toffee, and caramel with a touch of spice. Marzen caramel flavor base, with a grainy earthy spicy hop presence that’s muted but enough to just taste strange.

Oct 25, 2007 The beer has a fresh aroma with caramel and a distinctive grain bin smell. Smells exactly like being in the brewery when an Oktoberfest is being brewed. Gold to copper color with a creamy head. Big grain taste with a non-hop bite at finish. Hearty and dense mouthfeel.

Oct 24, 2007 Updated: Oct 25, 2007Strong fruity aroma, taste is malt and carmel with fizzy bitter finish. Only complaint is a slight metallis taste, otherwise quite good.

Oct 19, 2007 Pours a deep, clear copper with a dense, frothy, beige head that reduces to a thin cap of bubbles. The aroma is bready malt with caramel and fruity hops rounding out the nose. The mouthfeel is on the light side of medium-bodied with a slick almost creamy mouthfeel that concludes in a clean, lightly dry finish. The flavor is of toasted bread, caramel and lightly fruity hops. After sampling over a dozen "traditional" Oktoberfests, this is easily my favorite of those available in bottles.
