Appearance: Pours a clear, effervescent, medium copper body with a small, fizzy white head. Smell: Odd, though faint aroma of steeped grains and spiced grapes.

Drinkability: Not exactly the ideal Oktoberfest...

clear amber, fine dirty white head, dry dark caramel aroma with light earthy hops, picks up a winey character upon warming, rich malt flavor, just a touch of caramel sweetness, light bready character, lots of spicy character bordering on tartness, touch of pumpkin?, long earthy bitter finish, is this a pumpkin spice beer or an oktoberfest?
