  • Pours clear as expected. A fair amount of white, frothy foam that has some solid retention. Lacing is sparse.

    Aroma is mainly toasted and toffee malt. The toffee and even caramel malts give it a definite sweetness.

    Taste is obviously malt forward. Toasted and toffee malt really come through. A bit of spice and earth hops come through in the finish. Ever so slightly bitter. The malt actually lingers a bit.

    Medium body with a comparable carbonation.

    A solid Oktoberfest offering that is easy drinking. After last years crazy set of seasonal beers, this is my single seasonal beer, this year, and I would go for it again. Enjoy!

  • A: Clear medium amber, tan head of medium consistency and retention.

    S: Butterscotch or toffee and brown sugar. Then biscuity malt follows.

    T: Malt, a little spice, a low bitterness, and a touch of earthiness. Very well balanced. Medium carbonation and a low creamy mouthfeel. Toffee notes linger in the background with some bready flavor.

    D: A real easy drinker, with a touch of personality. There's a lot of beer made in this style that doesn't walk the talk. In my book this brew deserves to be served at an Oktoberfest event. Proist.
