Lubiere	1.5 Royal Bavaria Munich Dunkel A pale blonde lager with a thin white head. In aroma, grainy mineral malt with light German hops, faint. In mouth, a sweet adjunct laden lager with corn notes, no hops, just plain bad. Bottle from a local supermarket. Wednesday, July 2, 2014

unclemike	2.8 Royal Bavaria Gold Pretty golden brew with a big bubbled, snow white head. Lightly flavored, lightly hopped, I’m lightly impressed. Pleasant, refreshing, goes down quickly, but not before the head dissapeared. still no defining characteristic Saturday, September 22, 2012
unclemike	2.9 Royal Bavaria Oktoberfest Poured redish copper color with white head that hung around for a few minutes. Aroma was nice, kinda like a Jolly Rancher. Tasted dry with a wine like feel, not bad if you enjoy watered down wine. Overall I was fairly happy Saturday, September 22, 2012
bu11zeye	2.6 Royal Bavaria Oktoberfest (Draught) Pours a clear copper body with a medium white head. Aroma of caramel, toasted grain, and biscuit. Flavor of caramel, grain, and biscuit. My least favorite of their beers. Seemed like this beer was well past its prime. Tuesday, June 19, 2012
bu11zeye	3.5 Royal Bavaria Weiss (Draught) Pours a clear golden body with a medium white head. Aroma of wheat, banana, citrus, and clove. Flavor of banana, clove, citrus, and bread. It appears that the new brewer certainly upgraded their beers. Tuesday, June 19, 2012
bu11zeye	3 Royal Bavaria Gold (Draught) Pours a clear yellow body with a medium white head. Aroma of grain, plastic film around new electronics, and earth. Flavor of toasted malt, dough, and light minerals with a clean finish. Tuesday, June 19, 2012
bu11zeye	2.9 Royal Bavaria Pilsner (Draught) Pours a clear yellow body with a medium off-white head. Aroma of lemon zest, grain, light grass, and earth. Flavor of grain, sweet malt, lemon, and soft pretzel dough. Sunday, June 17, 2012
troyc	2.6 Royal Bavaria Dunkelweizen [Tap] Good to see some new seasonal brews being produced at Royal Bavaria. Pours a clear nut brown color with about an inch worth of beige head. Aroma of cereal grains, wheat, vanilla and butter. The taste is dominated by a diacetyl/butter flavor that is typical in other beers by this brewer. Sweet light fruits, hazelnut and light clove notes as well. Less of a hefe yeast character than one might expect. Mediocre. Friday, February 18, 2011
troyc	3.1 Royal Bavaria Märzen [Tap] I was a little skeptical about this beer being a ’new’ beer that they were advertising at Royal Bavaria. I was assured by the waitstaff that it was indeed a different recipe from the Octoberfest beer that they brewed. Anyways, regardless of the recipe change it tasted very similar to their Octoberfest. Sweet and buttery aroma. Light in body. Pours a solid orange color. Taste is sweet and malty, with caramel and grains. Buttery notes throughout. It was all right, just not very different from the Octoberfest. Sunday, April 4, 2010
OldBoss	2.6 Royal Bavaria Weiss Had at Jorg’s farewell. New owner and brewer, and products have improved somewhat. The beer poured slightly hazy orange with a two finger head. Some DMS still lingering, but not the butter bomb it used to be. No banana esters, but mild clove notes are present. Still not all I’d expect from a German Hefe, but an improvement over past efforts. BREW!!! Friday, August 7, 2009
kreepindeth	2.8 Royal Bavaria Oktoberfest Aroma of buttered biscuits. Pours a bright orange with a thick white head. Flavor has mild butter with heavy biscuit notes. Enjoyable and surprising given the low alcohol content. Thursday, June 7, 2007
Braudog	2.2 Royal Bavaria Blonde Lager Draft at the brewpub, 11/14/06: Very still, slightly hazy. Laced head. Liquid lemon cookie; very sweet malt. Least favorite here. Sunday, November 19, 2006
Braudog	2.6 Royal Bavaria Weiss Draft at the brewpub, 11/14/06: Clearer than you’d expect for a hefeweizen. Very bubbly, rising into a big white head. Maltier than I’d thought. Creamy. Bit of a yeasty edge, but not much. Enjoyable but not squarely down the the HW vein. Sunday, November 19, 2006
Braudog	3.5 Royal Bavaria Oktoberfest Draft at the brewpub, 11/14/06: Amber-orange with an extremely active appeal. Very smooth. Biscuity at first, mellows as you go into a more evenly keeled malty brew. Quite good. Sunday, November 19, 2006
mattcoats	2.5 Royal Bavaria Blonde Lager To the note of the previous rater, this beer does have a nice "Koelsch-like quality", although I would put it somewhere between a lager and a koelsch. It lacked the richness that I would have expected, but its flavor was still good. It was certainly the best looking beer at Royal Bavaria. Tuesday, October 24, 2006
mattcoats	2.9 Royal Bavaria Oktoberfest I am always weary about low-alcohol brews here in Oklahoma, but this one impressed me. Its rich golden bubbly body was topped by a light foamy goodness, and its aroma was fair. While the flavor was mediocre and the body was thin, the taste was still good. Tuesday, October 24, 2006
mattcoats	1.6 Royal Bavaria Weiss There wasn’t a lot to this beer. In fact, at one point I forgot I was drinking beer. There was not much flavor to the beer and it seemed to be extra filtered leaving little or no cloudiness behind. Try one of the other beers on tap. Tuesday, October 24, 2006
troyc	3.1 Royal Bavaria Blonde Lager (Tap) Pours a blonde color with a lasting white head. This beer has nice and balanced crisp hoppy notes. Pretty decent body for a low alcohol beer. This is a light and refreshing brew, but lacking some of the German Koelsch-like qualities that one might expect from this beer. Wednesday, October 18, 2006
troyc	3.1 Royal Bavaria Oktoberfest (Tap) Pours a rich amber with a fluffy, lasting head. Yeast and biscuit notes. Not a lot in the way of hops, but still refreshing. More body than I expected, especially for a low alcohol beer. Pairs nicely with the sausage here. Wednesday, October 18, 2006
troyc	2.7 Royal Bavaria Weiss (Tap) Pours golden, but not very cloudy as one would expect. Pretty bland... no off flavors, but nothing special compared to other hefeweizens. There are almost no detectable clove or fruity notes. This is pretty unlike the style. I’d almost say it’s more like an American Wheat. I’ll try it again to see if this beer tastes consistent. Right now, it’s probably my least favorite Royal Bavaria beer. Wednesday, October 18, 2006
crymdogdee	5 Royal Bavaria Weiss Jorg knows how to brew a "real" beer. You will forget about the phoney American watered down beer once you try a selection brewed at the Royal Bavaria. When I can not drink at the Royal Bavaria-- I only drink Franzis Kaner Hefe Weiss. There are a very select few others- but, I only drink good beer!!! You people that said you did not like Royal Bavaira Weiss don’t know good beer. Jorg obtains the ingrediants for his brews straight from Bavaria. There are no american products in the beer except the water. Have some Wiener Schnitzel with your Weiss and afterwards a pear schapps and you’ll feel fine!! Tuesday, October 17, 2006
babak	1.8 Royal Bavaria Weiss it poured like anaverage Weizen, but it smelled terrible, and the flavor was very bland... the aroma was the exact same for both the beers that I tried at royal bavaria... possibly infected, very buttery Sunday, August 27, 2006
Papsoe	2.7 Royal Bavaria Oktoberfest (On tap) Presented as "Royal Bavaria Kings Oktoberfest". Slightly hazy amber with a handsome, creamy, off-white head leaving some laces. Malty nose with some hints of yeast. Medium body with vague, caramelish accents. Discreet, hoppy finish. Decent but not an overly refined example of the style. 210306 Tuesday, March 21, 2006
Papsoe	2.3 Royal Bavaria Weiss (On tap) Presented as "Royal Bavaria Kings Weizen". Hazy golden with a creamy, off-white head. Surprisingly neutral aroma - no fruity banana esters here. Medium body with sweetish malts and vague accents of yeast. Definitely drinkable but a very poor example of a Hefe. A Bavarian would cry if forced to drink this. 210306 Tuesday, March 21, 2006
MrRomero	1.9 Royal Bavaria Blonde Lager Tap at the brewery: poured cloudy yellow with a small white head. Less offensive butter flavor than the other two but equally as bad. All these beers taste the same: Diacetyl bombs with very watery finishes. Very disappointing with these brews. Friday, December 9, 2005
MrRomero	1.3 Royal Bavaria Weiss Tap at the brewery: poured clear light orange with a medium creamy white head. Same diacetyl as the Octoberfest in the aroma. This beer actually tastes just like the Octoberfest but it’s filtered. No weizen characteristics: no banana, no spice, no yeast. Just butter. Very poor beer. Note to Crymdogdee- I live in Germany and I can say this beer sucks. Friday, December 9, 2005
MrRomero	1.8 Royal Bavaria Oktoberfest Tap at the brewpub: poured a cloudy orange with a medium white head. Fairly big diacetyl aroma and nothing else. Buttery flavor with a mild bitter finish. No discernible Octoberfest/Marzen flavors in this one. Not very good at all. Friday, December 9, 2005
Terminus	3.3 Royal Bavaria Blonde Lager tap at brewpub-sampled at the OK gathering-pours clear yellow hue with nimimal white head. aroma is mostly spicy german hops and some sweet malt notes. flavors are dead on for a great lager-nice spicy noble hop presence and some slight grassy notes on the finish. almost kolsh-like. good lager! Tuesday, August 17, 2004
Terminus	3 Royal Bavaria Oktoberfest tap at brewpub-sampled at the OK gathering-pours a hazy orange hue with minimal white head. similar thing going on as the hefe-buttery aroma mixed with that marzen characteristic fall aroma-i get hard boiled eggs too! flavors are a little better-tastes like a marzen with a slight buttery note. Tuesday, August 17, 2004
Terminus	3 Royal Bavaria Weiss tap at brewpub-sampled at the OK gathering-pours cloudy yellow, but not as cloudy as alot of hefe’s. yeaasty, bready aroma, and slightly buttery (diacytl?). flavors are grainy and sweet-not much banana or clove on this one. average Tuesday, August 17, 2004
