Can. Gold, clear, no head. Light aroma but musty. Mild carbonation. This seems much more like a lager than an oktoberfest. Don’t recommend.

Dark golden with light amber touches, nice lacing, small white head... lightly sweet malt aroma flavor matches mostly semi sweet kinda slick w a lightly dry finish...

Can from McGrupp612. Aroma has notes of cereal malts, and caramel. Medium golden amber hue with an average off-white head that left no las and fully diminished. Flavor is lightly sweet and bitter. Palate is light bodied and average carbonation. Overall an unremarkable Oktoberfest.

Pour a clear copper / bronze with an off-white head. Aroma and Taste of light toasted malt, some light fruity and grass notes and some hops bitterness. Palate is a medium body with good carbonation. Finish is lightly toasted malt, some yeast with a slightly fruity and hoppy ending, could use a bit more malt. Overall not the best but an ok drinkable brew.

On tap at Champs. Thick white head that retains. Aroma is faint hay. Flavor is bitter hay and straw. Very drinkable but surprisingly dry for an Oktoberfest. Could definitely use more caramel maltiness IMO.

A bit disappointing. Far more like a standard macro brew lager in a can than I would expect from a small maker’s Oktoberfest variety. Malty, skunky, but full bodied with some strength to it.

Pretty decent Oktoberfest with a touch of noble hops on a solid cereal malt base. Hint of caramel.

Jesterdeal (417) - Marlton, New Jersey, USA - SEP 23, 2011
Heavy aroma of bread dough, notes of floral. Pours orange with a nice film. Tastes of sour dough, grass, and copper. Not the best Mouthfeel. Not very good.
