Bottle/Fest. A- Caramel, malty, slightly sweet. A- Amber color, clear liquid, off white head. T- Caramel, malty, sweet, mild grains. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- A no frills beer that does the style justice. Very drinkable even if it's not a hot new craze type of beer. Perhaps a touch on the sweet side but not bad at all.

Very similar to their Oktoberfest perhaps a shade darker in a touch more roasty. Like with a lot of Schell beers a short-lived head with no lace.

Bottle. Sour milk, toffee malt, and weedy grass aroma. Amber with moderate head. Lightly sweet toffee malt and lightly bitter weedy grass flavor. Very light body. Not much to it.

Bottle: Clear, dark amber, with a thick, off-white head. Caramel, lightly toasty aroma. Taste is sweet caramel malt..... Mild, nicely carbonated.....fairly solid, but simple.

Bottle. Pours clear copper, small beige head, decent residual and lacing. Aroma is a bit unappetizing, caramel, rotting grass, corn syrup. Flavor is much better, medium sweet, light bitter, corn and caramel. Medium body.
