In a stein, served as pictured, at the source, yeah! Pale and clear. Neutral nose. Noo rude attributes in this one; it knows its a fest beer and it remains one, nice. Very friendly. Well behaved with civility & nicely balanced. One of the better fest I've had. Not quite as good as Climax Hoffmann, Hacker-Pschorr, Voodoo James Brown, Assawoman Bay MD, Sprague Farm Spraguer Logger or even Schell Oktoberfest, but its still pretty good stuff.
