Commercial Description:
Seductively smooth, this medium-bodied amber beauty is akin to the great Oktoberfest beers of Munich. All German hops make this lager true to style. Patient cold aging makes it wonderfully smooth. In bottles September through February

Clear copper/brown pour with minimal off-white head. Nice aroma of earthy malts, light caramel, and hops. Very spiced taste. A little fruity with a large floral character. Hops poke through a little in the end for an interesting balance.

botle. pours a sparkling copper color with an inch of beige foam on top. the nose is a mix of caramel, honey, and light fruits. nice balanced flavor. feels full and smooth on the way down. short bitter finish. a nice, but standard, interpretation of the Oktoberfest style.

cloudy amber color, slight tan head with a bit of lacing. nothing but air in the nose. spicey, peppery flavor, which finishes rather weak with a thin peppery after taste. a passable if much too mild oktoberfest style beer.

Thought they would really nail this style, but not so much. It’s pretty good, but certainly not an upper-tier Oktoberfest.

12 oz bottle purchased from Ocean Wine & Spirits. Pours a transparrent orange with a large off white frothy head. Aroma of spiced malts and a slight touch of honey sweetness as well. Thin bodied with a watery mouthfeel and light carbonation. Bready flavor with noticable maltiness, and a slight bit of sweetness. Pretty standard Octoberfest brew.
