3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 joeneugs (2143) - Livermore, California, USA - MAY 1, 2013
12 oz. bottle. It pours a nice clear reddish amber color with an off white/orangy head. The aroma is very malty with some caramel and fruit, but mostly malty grains. The flavor is strong and complex with toasty and fruity malts and a nice noble hop presence near the finish. A really satisfying yet easy to drink beer. A near perfect Octoberfest.

Bottle - Pours clear amber with a foamy tan head. Nose is big and caramelly, with lightly toasted malt and light herbal hops. Same taste--lots of toasted malt, caramel, and a bit of herbal/floral hopping. Slick, with minimal carbonation. Good, but a bit too sweet.

12oz bottle pours deep clear copper with thin near white head. The aroma offers up some sweet caramel malts, a nice biscuit maltiness heading toward sort of grainy bread as well as Pilsener like malt sweetness. The taste has a sweet and bready and somewhat caramel maltiness. In between the malts is a slight dark fruity esters sweetness and some lagery yeastiness. Nice, there’s enough going on here to keep it from getting too sweet.

12oz bottle. Good pour, reddish-amber color and light haymarket aroma. Slight head fades, decently strong carbonation. Slightly burnt taste, traditional. Great body, full but not overpowering, easy to drink, a great tribute to the style, which I love!
