3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap at the brewpub in Little Rock, AR as "Oktoberfest." Pours a clear, rich, dark copper colored body with some ruby hues. Finger-width, creamy, tan head that dissipates slowly and leaves a nice lacing. Aroma is a bit thin with some grainy, lightly sweetened caramels. A touch of grass and toast. Flavor is much better. Lightly sweetened, grainy bready malts up front before a nice toasted caramel comes in. A few hints of fruit before this finishes with a nice, light-medium grassy bitterness and slightly toasted sweetness. Lengthy aftertaste following a light body and a soft, moderate carbonation. Overall, a bit thin on the aroma and body, but a nicely flavored Oktoberfest. Very pretty looking in the glass and enjoyable.

I was very surprised to enjoy this fine beer on tap in april of 2008, but i did and it was quite good. Very thick malty beer, it is supposed to be modeled after a 99 shilling beer i think. Very nice caramel/choco aroma.

I liked this brew a lot! Unfortunately, I didn’t have a notepad with me so I will have to get it again when I can take notes.
