Probably the least tasty of the Spaten I have tried, pours a mid-golden color and reminded me of a stronger Budweiser for some reason. Nothing special, i would have it again if on sale or if handed out at a party

Not a bad beer. Sampled at Oktoberfest in San Francisco, and after a few franzekaners and Spaten Oktoberfests i was a little out of it. It pours light brown with a decent head on it. Goes down smooth.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Crisp hop nose, big beaded head on a pale yellow body. Pleasant hoppy taste, a little soapy and a touch sweet although I enjoyed this.

UPDATED: JAN 6, 2008 Not a bad looking pour. Clear gold with a thick, foamy white head that lingered. Good lacing. The aroma was of yeasty, slightly sour hops. The flavor was sweet with a hop bite that hit early and lingered well into the aftertaste. Weird. Somewhat enjoyable although I think the Spaten Premium is a better choice.

Nice representation of the style. My only complaint is that the hops do almost have a musty quality to them. Other than that, it’s pretty good.

Clear yellow. Has a fine, lasting white head. Aroma of malt and dust. Flavor finish is heavy bitter.

Pale golden tight white head small bubble carbonation almost champagne like. Touch of bitterness and touch of pils malt, very dry and crisp....enjoyable
