I found this Oktoberfest above average. From the bottle. Nice amber pour with a medium head. Pleasant aroma of lightly sweet malts and just a hint of hops. Mild flavor and not too complex, but very drinkable. Some nice caramel notes over a malty backbone. Finish is smooth with a sublte malt aftertaste. Not bad for a macro.

Orangey-amber; caramel nose; some toast, caramel in the palate; slightly syrupy in the finish, with only the vaguest hint of hops; sweetens out right at the end with a toffee note.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy copper gold with small frothy off white head. The aroma is a raisin malt and toffee. Thin mouthfeel with s sweet honey malt a d raisin. Easy to drink, a decent marzen from Becks.

Bottled, 330ml, pasteurised. Orange amber with fizzed head. Dull malty carbonated beer, flatish taste, cardboardy initially. There is a vegetal hop and a malted sweetness with caramel. Poor to average.

Warm caramel/toffee aroma. Reddish amber color with a white head that just fizzed out completely. Thin to medium bodied with mild carbonation. It is slightly cooked caramel sweet, and there is enough bitter to keep it from being cloying. However, it is all about the malt. The finish, once the sweetness drains away, does impart some bitter. Too bad it didn’t arrive sooner. To me it’s more Newcastle Brown in flavor than anything else I can think of.

Red copper beer with a light brown head. Light sweet malt aroma. Sweet malt taste with a touch of treacle. Light bodied. (October 2004).

"for a buck? why not. not nearly as horrid as regular becks. can’t say too much negative about it at all. nearly an average brew. had the right aroma and taste, but was a little lackluster in the delivery."

Bottle. Poured copper color with an average frothy white head that was mostly lasting with fair lacing. Moderate toasted caramel malty aroma. Medium body. Medium sweet flavor with a light bittersweet finish of moderate duration.

12 oz. bottle from Whole Foods Charlottesville. Best before 06.2009. Very red slightly hazy pour with a huge head, moderate retention and poor lacing. Aroma is grass with some cereal notes. Taste is grain with an odd metallic note. Not very good.

Bottle. Pours nutty mahagony with a small frothy light brown head and spotty lacing. Caramel nutty roasted grain sweet yeast (dough) aroma. Bitter and sour malt caramel acidic start with a mild grain, hay finish. Medium bodied and fizzy, burpy.
