Slick (1962), Thief River Falls, Minnesota, USA Sep 13, 2004 Nice dark amber color,small off white head that had a short hangtime then faded to leave little behind.The aroma was malty with a bit of sweet caramel and maybe a hint of hops.The flavor was much the same as the aroma with a bit more sweetness and a nice malty side.The hops managed to come through nicely but not very strongly.Over all not a bad brew but fairly easy to drink. burcusabrews (106), St. Louis Park, Minnesota, USA Sep 7, 2004 Dep orange with a beige head. Buttery thyme aroma. Butter is a flaw (IMHO). Fruity flavor almost like cheap perfume Palidor19 (1750), Brandon, Florida, USA Aug 4, 2004 Sweet, malty with carmel overtones, a bitty tangy at the end. not too bad for a Marzen robertsreality (2460), Minnesota, USA Jun 24, 2004 Updated: Oct 7, 2004Light Brown Coloring. No Head. Pretty weak Oktoberfest for the most part...lackin’ some punch.
Upon Trying Again...with many Rates in Between...I find This To Be Much Better the Second Time. The Spice and Fruit Are Very Good...Don't Care for the Carbonation.. Nice acidic bitter fruit flavor on the sides of your mouth.. Worth Trying. Pigfoot (2226), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA May 6, 2004 ppearance: clear dark crimson color, the match of autumn leaves (the ones that pass by my window, of red and gold...), with a short, white head above.
Aroma: rich and sweet, caramelly, and touch vegetal.
Taste: toasty mouthfeel, with no hops anywhere, but malt is all over the place, and is quite yummy, too. A malt monster, with a full body, medium finish, and a nearly sticky flavor that coasts the mouth with every sip. I quite enjoyed this bottle and emptied it with exceptional ease. brewblackhole (1367), Muskego, Wisconsin, USA Apr 4, 2004 Faint malt carmel aroma, malt sweet slightly sour taste, bitter aftertaste, The only Lakefront I wouldn't recommend badgerben (3587), Blaine, Minnesota, USA Mar 29, 2004 Pours out with a light brown color with zilch for head. The aroma has a slight hint of malt; not as much as one would thikn for an Oktoberfest. Actually, that applies to the taste as well. It seemed like a watered down version of what it should be. Disappointed. duece (103), Waterford, Wisconsin, USA Feb 19, 2004 Very nice Oktober simple aroma and light head with a rich sweet though quickly dissipating malty flavor.
