| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Dec 17, 2009 Received a 12-oz bottle via trade with Ughsmash. Pours a clear golden pale amber colored brew with a thin off-white head that quickly dissipates to a thin film top. Aroma of light caramel and fruity malts, a hint of toffee and very little floral hops. Taste is medium bodied, with flavors of dry biscuits, some tart berries, and light floral hops. Finish has a slight tart berry and metallic texture aftertaste with little bitterness. Hard to place this one between a Munich or Vienna style. Maybe a Belgian sour style Mårzen could be one possibility. Ughsmash (4105), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Nov 12, 2009 Bottled. Poured clear, crisp medium orange with a short, fuzzy cap of white head. The aroma picked up sour fruit and vinegary notes upfront with caramel beneath and some leafy accents.. smelled off. The flavor found like sourness and acidity that canceled out caramel and biscuity sweetness.. bitterness was light and citric.. sour citrus and toasted grains on the finish. Medium-bodied and unfortunately sour as mentioned on the palate.. this bottle just didn’t hold up. JPDIPSO (4944), Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Oct 23, 2009 Updated: Nov 12, 2009Chill hazed dark amber color. Moderate taupe head. Light malt, grass, and grain in the aroma. Fairly thick in feel with a like acidity that thins it out in the end. Light pale malt and biscuit flavors in the front. Acidity kicks in early and wipes out many things. I sense a mild infection that overtake the toasty sweet malt and give me a sourdough rye. Think I need to try this in another forum. esjaygee (1600), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA

Aroma of mild toffee, grains and light fruit and nuts. Aroma of toffee, toasted pale malts and light fruits. Mildly sticky and not overly sweet, a slightly above average O’toberfest. phishpond417 (1953), Madison, Wisconsin, USA

So good i picked up some more: Poured a clear amber colour with a nice sized white head. Biscuity and rich with fresh clean soft malted notes on the palate. aroma was pleasent as well, again, very fresh and delightful. Chewy apple notes, some spice and a little smoke near the finish. What a great beer, go out and get some O’so!
