skortila (2880), Bunnik, Netherlands Oct 29, 2008 Bottle@LCRBM08. Aroma is sweetish malty, grainy and very, very fruity. Clear, amber coloured with a small head. Taste is hoppy, bit grainy/grassy with some caramel sweetness and fruitiness. okay. tsetlock (66), Livonia, Michigan, USA Oct 29, 2008 Nice red color, with no head. A nice smell of smokey malts with a hint of leather. A metallic-carmel taste. Not bitter at all, with a minimum ’’wine-y’’ aftertaste. SHIG (2012), Aviano, Italy Oct 26, 2008 Bottle @ LCRBM 08: Poured a orange copper color with a white head. The aroma is sweet malts. Taste is sweet with toffee and malts, finish still has a bitterness to it that makes it balanced Maezen. gary07734 (391), Tyne & Wear, England Oct 26, 2008 Updated: Feb 25, 2009Amber pour with small head, taste is sweet and malty, quite a lot of sweetness in the finish, tiny hops, decent enough beer. NoiZe (1289), Mooi Zeist, Netherlands Oct 26, 2008 Tastingsession LCRBM08. Copper colored brew. Sweet aroma. Malty, sweet flavor. Watery texture. Beershine (2678), Hue, Vietnam Oct 26, 2008 Pours very (too?) clear with thick, even head. Malty aroma is clean, wholegrain supermarket bread with nuts. Highly carbonated but not prickly, slick and slightly oily texture. Sweet bready finish reminds me a lot of OK Springs Pale Ale, that brings back memories...Lots of caramel. Pretty simple and thin. esjaygee (1467), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA Oct 26, 2008 Copper amber orange with a light cream colored lacing head. Aroma of sweet malt, mild nuts, grain, toffee - kinda boring like most Octoberfests. Taste of toasted malt, caramel and what I like to think of as Vienna malt and German Hops, not sure on their names. It’s okay. pivnizub (4953), Bochum, Porúří, Germany Oct 26, 2008 Bottle (LCRBM08): Copper coloured with a small off-white head; nutty-malty nose with a tinge of molasses; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, rather light bodied for a beer of 5.4%; nutty-bitter finish. Disappointing...........
