3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Lovely flavour of grain and roasted malt. Bittersweet. A lovely take on a style I usually find boring. This bottle was probably in optimal condition. Dark gold.

Smells really good and plenty. Tastes wonderful good too. The aftertaste is a little thinner but okay. This October beer was really good anyway.

Bottle. Creamy off-white good mostly lasting head. Amber colour. Moderate malty and heavy hoppy aroma. Wonderfull powerfull bitter flavor. Hops and malt in nice balance. Week caramellic. Long moderate bitter finish. Creamy palate. Great beer but way too hoppy acording to style.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Dark brown color. It has an interesting aroma of cereals, malt, sugar, light wood and very light smoke. Round mouthfeel; very good caramel flavor, with hints of roasted malts, toasted wood; it has correct bitterness.
Not an Oktoberfest, just a very good beer.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottled. Hazy mahogany colour, small but firm head. Evident grapefruity hop aroma. Dry and crisp with medium body. Mild coffeeish roastiness, notes of butter and evident citric hops. Quite bitter finish. Not a tradituonal oktoberfest in any sense, but very enjoyable and reminiscent of Nils Oscar playful take on the style - Kalasöl.

Ruby red. Easy on the hops in the aroma. Massivly, caramel, bread. Bitterness in the higher end makes a high drinkabilaty. High co2.
