Klassiker - med en del maltsødme, let humle, lidt karamel. Let drikkelig - men ikke ringe...

Nice head with a beautiful copper colored pour. Nose is malty and light with some molasses. Like most Paulaner beers this is good and drinkable. Revisited 09: This last batch is amazing. Probably the best I have ever had. If I could brew beer like this I wouldn’t have to jerk off any more.

A very good beer that offered some nice aroma and flavor. Features some slight sweetness on the palate and a warmth in the aftertaste.

Thin white head with amber, orange color.Carmel malts smell with no head. Medium to light body and moderate carbonation with a mild bitter flavor of medium crystal malts. Very slightly sweet at the same time.

The aroma isgrassy more than honey otherwise I would rate it higher for me. The color is a beautiful clear amber and with the exception of the quickly disappearing white foam looks great. Nice light refreshing taste. Light body and a smooth drink but a little nit of a bitter finish. I really enjoy these types of beers but I’m not sure if this was my favorite.

This is the standard for Oktoberfest Bier. Excellent color, very true to the style. Flavor is unmatched in festbiers. As others have said below, it is the best mass at Oktoberfest.

Tasted a fine draft example at Cafe Berlin in Denver. A very nice elegant malty aroma with a slight graham cracker note. Pilsner malt comes through with a clean, fresh profile. Appearance was amber and crystal clear with a thin white head cover. Carbonation was low and mouthfeel was medium bodied with a touch of dms. I think I noted a slight diacetyl note, but it might have just been the elegance and slight caramel note of the toasty munich malt. Flavor was elegant and slightly sweet. Not as dry as I’ve had from the bottle but still pretty nice and not as oxidized as bottle examples. An Oktoberfest on draft is worth trying. Not much bad to say other than a little too low on carbonation and not quite dry enough...increasing carbonation might increase perception of dryness.
