| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Oct 25, 2007 the beer pours a clear pale orange color with a nice thick head to it. It has a sweet yet pale and bland aroma of nuts and fall spices. as you drink it, the flavors are a little spicy and mildly hoppy. it leaves a nice toffee flavor on the palate. conor23 (110), Elgin, Illinois, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 25, 2007 Aroma is very skunky. Flavor is smoky and a little spicy with hoppy finish and lingering bitter aftertaste. I would rate this as a decent Oktoberfest beer but not the best I have tried. NPRugby11 (82), New York, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Oct 17, 2007 Updated: Sep 28, 2008Poured from draft at The Sanctuary (Iowa City, IA) into a conical pint glass. Color a very pleasant crisp amber. Head is minimal - this is my third beer here and maybe it’s The Sanctuary itself that is leaving me "Headless" : P. Smell is faint (perhaps also due to The Sanctuary). Smell vaguely of sweet malts. Inviting - No hops in smell. Let’s be blunt. I don’t like Marzen/Okt style beers. Very nice initial taste. Sharp roasted malts combat a small hop flavor. Balanced, but not completely. Roasted breaks way to carmelized flavor and a nice sweet undertone in the finish. Extremely enjoyable aftertaste.
