| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 15, 2006 Updated: Oct 27, 2009 Draft. This is apparently available commercially for 2006 to whichever commercial accounts get the first deliveries next week. This is still pretty young. It pours pretty brown and hazy at this date. Has a yeasty bite at first, but the smell of its caramel and Vienna roast malts overcomes that. A bit gassy, but again very malty, and quietly hopped for a Floyds beer. Although there may be a bit of American northwest hops to add a bit of citrusy taste.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Feb 8, 2010 Pours a golden orange with slight haze and a very thin white sudsy head. Not much aroma at all - grain/malt only. Flavor is similarly one dimensional with cereal grain predominating and not much else going on. Disappointed with this offering from Three Floyds though I suspect this may be an old bottle. blutt59 (2297), Dallas, Texas, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 5, 2010 bottle, thanks to pittsburghkid, golden colored pour with good standing foam, aroma of fruity toffee, flavors of carrot juice, caramel and grainy, finish is a little weak Boutip (2452), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jan 16, 2010 Bottle: Poured a dirty golden color ale with a tiny foamy head with light retention and not much lacing. Aroma of overly sweet malt with some grainy cereal cereal is more or less interesting. Taste is also dominated by some grainy cereal with some overly sweet notes. Body has an oily texture with medium carbonation. Not sure I get what the goal was but I didn’t enjoy this - lacking caramel malt. madmitch76 (1100), , Essex, England

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 23, 2009 Bottle. Barley malt and floral/hay hops aroma. Clear amber color with minimal head. Sweet corn syrup and barley malt flavor. Pretty standard fest beer - good but pretty average. cbkschubert (2062), Cochise Co., Arizona, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 22, 2009 22 oz. bottle via trade with StFun - Pours a hazy golden-orange color with a 3/4 finger thick off white head. Light lacing. Aroma is toasted malt and light hops. Flavor is fruity esters and toasted malt. Medium body. The hops and esters linger a tad. I wouldn’t say this is a traditional Oktoberfest/Märzen , but it still tastes pretty good. Thanks Josh. BVery (720), Burnsville, Minnesota, USA
