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

Ungstrup (22906) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - JAN 1, 2007
An amber beer with a thick, but disappearing orange head. The aroma is sweet with notes of caramel and malt. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of straw and caramel. I find it quite mainstream.

Draught at Pony Bar, New York
Light amber color. The aroma is too light. It has caramel flavor, but a rather dry mouthfeel, and also a bit dusty. Correct bitterness. The final is dry too. Boring.
