Commercial Description:
This smooth brew ushers in Autumn with an invitingly tawny color complemented by an assertive maltiness. A noble crispness from German and Czech hops completes this very traditional lager-style beer.

12 oz bottle. Pours a clear brown body with little to no head. The aroma is sweet, the taste is sweet, malty and caramel flavor.

Bottle. Amber body topped by a small albeit lasting head. Smells sweet and fruity. Fruity caramel flavor. Not a typical Oktoberfest for sure, though it isn’t unpleasant. Drinkable but I wouldn’t buy it again.

12 oz bottle. Poured copper in color with a little off white head that left little lacing on the glass. Aroma mostly sweet with caramel. Tastes is earthy, caramel sweetness, mild bread. Seemed a little on the thin side and finished a little too much on the sweet side for an Oktoberfest.

Bottle courtesy of sloth. Pours copper with a thin white head. Smells of light spice and caramel. Tastes sweet and caramelly with a touch of roses, some earthy hints and a spicy finish.
