jake65 (1182), Meridian, Idaho, USA Dec 27, 2006 Bottle: Thanks to Leah for this one! Transparent copper pour with a smaller white head and some moderate lacing. Lots of maltiness overall, with some hops in the finish. Some light spice in the tail that I couldn’t put my finger on. Maybe even a hint of vanilla. Body is quite rich and syruplike. DA (2261), Portland, Oregon City, Oregon, USA Nov 13, 2006 On tap at the Wild River pub. Pours amber, very clear, with a thin white head. Malt up front with a big hop dose in the finish. The malts had a quick toastiness, but I couldn’t get much flavor from it cause the hops overwhelmed the malt to quick. Oakes (6784), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Feb 26, 2006 Slightly toasty malt aroma. Light bronze colour. Very spicy - anise and what is that? More toast malts in the flavour. Kind of thin and those inappropriate flavours detract. omhper (10140), Stockholm, Sweden Feb 17, 2006 Draught at the Wild River Pizza, Brookings. Clear amber. Resiny hop aroma. Sweet with mushy, somewhat syrupy mouthfeel. Salt, sugar and resin creates a tastebud burning sensation. Lingering bitter finish. More of an IPA than an Oktoberfest, which is pretty much as far wrong as you can go. motelpogo (4111), Plzen, Czech Republic Sep 8, 2004 on tap in cave junction. good to see an attempt made at this style. a certain germanness to it, light vanilla aroma, quite sweet, decent
