Commercial Description:
Amber in color. This medium bodied beer has achieved its impeccable taste by balancing the roasted malt flavor with the perfect amount of hops. Having a rich textured palate with an underlying sweetness true to tradition.

Ah yes, the first Oktoberfest of the year! Nice dark amber pour with thick off white head. Big malty aroma with a slight noble hop bitterness. Taste is a wonderful balance between the malt presence and the hops. Not the best in this style, but good.

Pours clear, medium amber-brown, with a thin white head, not much lacing. Sweet, fruity, malty aroma, like rasins and apples. Medium body, very smooth. Crisp, well-balanced flavor, sweet, malty and caramel at first, with a nice German hop zing in the aftertaste.

Amber with a sweet malty aroma. Smooth tasting lager that is a bit feeling. Excellent balance of hops and malt.

12oz bottle. Transparent tan-orange color with a quickly dissipating head. Delicate sweet aroma. Creamy and malty with a pleasant spicy hop crispness. Displays a lot of lighter lager characteristics, in a good way, which make it quite a drinkable Oktoberfest. This one is a Ur-classic, pretty much dead center in the range of Oktoberfests.
