Tasty.

3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draft. Poured amber with a medium-sized off-white, dense head. Aroma and flavor were moderately malty, a hint of fruit, smoke, and rye spice (I know, that shouldn’t make sense). Mildly bitter -- ah ha! that’s the spicy note, the German hops. Medium weight. Very drinkable, substantial flavor for an oktoberfest.

25-JAN-2012, bottle @Papsø tasting, @Yespr.
Almost clear with very low head.
Malty, very hoppy with fruits and spice.
Finish is very bitter. Strange spicy (yeasty?) brew. Not bad, just strange.
