Pours a very subtle honey color. Very light head that quickly dissipates into lit lacing. Aroma of apple, yeast and hops. Hops with undertones of apple. A bit of bitterness. Not very flavorful.

Bottle: Caramel color, light head and lacing. Nose of metallic husk and appley yeast esters, some fruity hop. The flavor is semi-sweet, plenty of husk, a bite in the tail and mouthfeel, but it isn’t anything good, some light stale hop and carbonation. Meh.

Bottle: A golden beer, relatively light-colored for an o-fest. Very light aroma -- mostly sweet malt. Same, same for the flaves ... musty, sweet and malty. Almost a bit of a lemon zestiness going on here, but wtih a dry finish all the same. (#3228, 11/30/2007)

Decent lager, although I didn’t find it smooth enough or balanced enough for an sessionable oktoberfest. The hops were citrusy and crisp, the malts felt dull and a touch of a soured flavor came through. Needed a touch more bitterness to balance the sweetness for me.

Bottle. Poured pale copper, thin off-white head. Minimal lacing. Basic caramely aroma with a similar simple caramel flavor. Malts have a nice dryness. Rich creamy body.

NIce malty aroma. Poured a nice amber color with a small but very fluffy white head that quickly receded into a very thin cap. Left very light lacing. Has a very malty flavor that I found very pleasant. Medium body with thick texture Carbonation is lively but not overbearing. Finish is sweet malt followed by quick slightly bitter hops flavor. I really enjoyed this oktoberfest. While not a addition to my favorite rotation of beers, I will definitely drink this one with pleasure again. A very good job by Lakefront. If you like malty beers give this one a try. Served in a Stein.

Pours an orangish amber with a quarter-inch fluffy white head that quickly fades. Malty, grainy aroma. Slightly sour malt flavor with a subtle hop finish. Not bad.

Pours a amberish color with a small white head.A somewhat hoppy aroma with maybe a hint of malt.Taste seems very bland of sweet malt,almost didnt seem like a oktoberfest.
