Half-pint as Octoberfest 4.8 % abv, draught at Fallen Acorn Brewery, Shared with Finn. Stable white head, next-to-clear golden body, spotty lacing. Grassy, pale malty nose. Flavoured with noble hops, pale malts, and basement. Smooth malt-fruity ending with discreet bitterness. Satisfying. (Gosport 19.10.2022).

On tap at the brewery. Pours opaque dark copper brown with an off white head. Aroma: caramel, grains, burnt toffee. Taste: light sweet & bitter, malty, fruity, metallic, astringent. Medium bodied, average carb, light spicy finish. Whilst it was reminiscent of the style it tasted rather odd

Cask at Hants Oktoberfest. Fruity and funky aroma. Dark chestnut. Frothy off-white head. Tastes like a fruity bitter to me. Medium bodied. Slick. Soft carbonation. Slightly astringent but abrupt finish. I like but is it a Marzen ?

Cask at the Hampshire Ockoberfest, Basingstoke. A copper coloured pour with a loose cream head; aroma of burnt toffee; taste of toasty grains, caramel and a touch of spice.
