Location: Draft at Little Rock Brewpub, 10/5/11
Aroma: The nose has caramel, biscuit, grass, and earth
Appearance: This one pours a copper color with a white head
Flavor: The taste is somewhat sweet, with a nice hop presence to it
Palate: The body is light-medium, and a has a pretty good mouthfeel
Overall Impression: It looks like I’m going to be the aberration here, because I thought this was one of the better Oktoberfests that I have had recently. I enjoyed that it was a little more balanced than many other Oktoberfests. Granted, I usually don’t love the style, but I really enjoyed this one, and I was surprised to see the overall score sitting at 38. It is definitely better than that!

On tap in Little Rock. Pours a clear golden (not to style) with a small ring of head. Aroma of corn, caramel, and very sweeet. Taste is sweet and caramelly with a bit of fruits. Shar bubbles and a relatively dry mouthfeel. Not bad, but nothing special.

On tap at the Nashville brewpub. Nice copper color with a long lasting white head. Hop aroma is quite pronounced for an Oktoberfest. The hops give this a dry bite and finish. Needs just a bit of juicy malt to balance this out.
