Paulaner Oktoberfest

Hope it is the 2007 version - Bev Mo (Union & Camden - San Jose CA) Unfortunately this was not a great example - was a little light-struck Pours like a gorgeous O’Fest with that traditional reddish amber with a lasting off white head... very nice malt nose... a little muddled (??) The taste is wonderfully complex malt richness with a restrained hop bite... the darn off taste makes it hard to appreciate this beer... I can almost pick out the smooth creamy feel but distracted by that slight metallic note Overall: Rating past the off flavors seems a little lacking comparing to the other wonderful O’Fest like Ayinger or Hacker-Pschorr

(Bottle from Alko). Slightly darker than a basic lager with frothy head. Malty, sweetish, full, slightly hoppy and all the way smooth. I need to have another one of these, but it seemed a bit flat and uninteresting compared to Ayinger Oktoberfest. Still good and dangerously easy drinking for such a high alc vol..

Oktoberfest @ Coach & Horses, Greenwich on cask - Clear gold, small head, honey notes, slight varbonation sensed on drinking, soft mouthfeel

I am a big fan of the Paulaner Hefe so I was really looking forward to this beer. Unfortunately, it was a thin watery brew that lacked any complexity. It was quite malty and had a slightly sweet then soapy finish. Not a great Oktoberfest.

Light golden body with thin fissy head. Aroma of malt and small citrusy notes. Flavor of bready malt and citrusy hops. Palate is thin. Simple and nice balanced.

Golden colour with small head,mild with taste of hops and corn,sweet and a bit malty.I better like the paulaner wheat beers.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a crystal clear amber with a moderate yellow/white head that faded to a film after several sips. Light, indistinct aroma. A bit of malt in the flavor, otherwise indistinct flavor as well. Moderate hops bitterness at the finish. This is a completely unspectacular beer.

(bottle): Pours a golden brown color, yellow/white head. Somewhat lasting. Small bubbles. Very malty aroma. Weakish aroma. Chemically watery refreshing taste, clean aftertaste. Malty taste. Not too strong a flavor. Not my stylë
