May 26, 2003 Bottled. Reddish amber. The crystal malt flavour is dominating the beer. Chewy mouthfeel. Pleasant, but one-dimensional. I've never really accepted octoberfest beers made with crystal malt, but this one is pretty good.

Nov 30, 2006 12oz bottle. Poured a medium and slightly hazy copper color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of toasted malts, burnt, caramel, and some nuts. Tastes of caramel, toasted nuts, and lightly bready. Tastes started out nice but had a weak and thin finish.

Oct 14, 2002 Very sweet and smooth. Bright copper colored with a small head. A very drinkable and good Oktoberfest.

Nov 16, 2008 Pours copper with a thin white head. Smells of sweet malt, some nutty hints, toasty. Tastes of sweet malt with a decent peppery splash on the finish.

Jul 11, 2009 Amber beer with a thin white head. The aroma is loaded with soft maltiness. Lightly swet and toasty with a bit of Munich malt sweetness. Excelent cleanliness with a crisp fresh breadiness. Softly sweet and a little toasty. A touch of light herbal character. Sweet and balanced and fairly toasty. Nice brew.

Oct 27, 2007 A huge creamy head tops the pale orange/copper body. The aroma has clean toasted malt with a touch of caramel sweetness. Nice lively carbonation. It has a lightly toasted bread flavor with some malty sweetness and a very light earthy bitterness to balance it out. Pretty decent. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?PlaceID=7359> Three Cellars, Franklin, WI<font size=-1>

Aug 29, 2002 Dark amber color with a thick light tan head. Very malty aroma. Flavors that follow. This one has improved over the years, but still seems to lack the toasty flavors I enjoy in an oktoberfest.
