Aug 18, 2008 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.

Jul 28, 2008 Bottle at Oktoberfest party in Bangor. Malts and hops co-mingle well. The beer is a flatliner it has nice base flavor to work with but goes nowhere. That being said its a good heavy session beer. You can stay sober by eating wurst and pretzels.

Jul 6, 2008 Bottle. Poured dark gold with thick white head. Wonderful hoppy and malty aroma. Flavour just drops off the table with a flat ending. Thin body and a flattish finish. Acceptable, but a disappointment after such a fine start.

Jun 28, 2008 Beautiful amber-colored beer. Roast malt tones balanced by mellow (not crisp) hop flavor. Finishes slightly bitter and sweet. Unique.
