3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
i’m a big fan of all victory’s brews but this one left me hanging..i was just expecting a solid Oktoberfest after having the primas and devils for so long..didn’t happen...the body was thin and a little watery...flavor of weak fest malts not much for hops, nothing stood out for me..still love Victory but they need to step up their fest brew...
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Amber with a light beige head that fades to a coat. Aroma of toffee, bread, toasted nuts. Taste has toffee and nuts, but despite richness it’s not very sweet and has balancing bitterness with mild spices. Solid if unspectacular.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Poured clear amber with a decent head. Bready aroma with sweet malt and smooth finish. Victory makes some great beers, this is a good one for everyday in October.
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Caramel and a little orange in the aroma. More sweet caramel in the taste. This is a little sweeter than I like, but it has more flavor than you typically get in an Oktoberfest, and it’s still an easy drinker.

Hay, nuts, Roasty not bad but there are certainly better. The starting is quickly overshadowed by a bland but lingering finish
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Reviewed from notes (2007).
A: Amber brown body with a thick healthy cream white head.
S: Strong malt aromas power through with a dash of hops in the back end
T: The malt aroma is manifested in a rich malty taste. Caramel comes through a bit towards the middle and a strong roasted finish.
M: Creamy mouthfeel that sits on the palate with a bit of carbonation.
O: Very refreshing... first had this at Victory’s Fall Fest... fresh and lovely on a warm fall day.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
12oz bottle from an October trip to Colorado. Simply the best American-made Oktoberfest beer out there...nutty, roasted caramel malts dominate both aroma and flavor, with a refreshing crisp dryness from Saaz hops at the finish. Clear honey orange with a moderate white head and well-balanced carbonation.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
bottle, orange color with white foam, aroma is malty carrots, flavor is malty, fruits, carrot juice, metal
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Clear honey brown pour. Medium head dissipated rather quickly. Aroma is nutty, bready, caramel, spice. Flavor profile mirrors the nose, with a nice spice character - cinnamon, nutmeg, pumpkin pie spices. Sweet throughout, dries up a bit on the finish. The finish is crisp and clean. Average.
