Half liter dimpled stein draft at Evil Czech Brewery and Public House in Mishawaka, Indiana. The pour is a clear amber golden with a small light tan head that leaves behind nice lace. The aroma is caramel malt and grass spiced hop. The taste is a nice clean balance between the caramel malt and the grass floral finishing with the soft spice hop, and a crisp mineral finish. The palate is medium bodied with a soft natural carbonation and the mineral crisp dry finish. Solid Oktoberfest.

16oz can from the Keg. Opens with a gush, a bit unexpected, pours out amber with one finger fluffy head. Tangy citrusy aroma. Taste brings sweet Malts, caramel and citrus, full bodied. Light citrus and toffee in the taste. Opens with a bang, settles out to a sweet, syrupy brew.

Medium, cloudy orange-brown body, thick, puffy off-white to cream head. Muddled nose, bready with fermented fruits. Dense, muddled flavor profile, some tropical fruits, also vegetal/oniony, with nothing in particular standing out except its relative booziness. One of those beers that would probably be quite good with a few minor tweaks but just doesn't quite work as is.

16 ounce can into tulip glass, no can dating. Pours opaquely hazy deep golden/orange/amber color with a 2 finger dense and fluffy off white head with amazing retention, that reduces to a large cap that lasts. Thick creamy/foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation. Amazing appearance. Aromas of red grapefruit, tangerine, orange juice, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, mango, honeydew melon, berries, citrus peel/rind, wood, light peppercorn/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt notes; with solid strength. Taste of big red grapefruit, tangerine, orange juice, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, mango, honeydew melon, berries, citrus peel/rind, wood, light peppercorn/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Mild pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, woody, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of red grapefruit, tangerine, orange juice, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, mango, honeydew melon, berries, citrus peel/rind, wood, light peppercorn/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt flavors; with a solid malt/bitterness balance, and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, creamy/silky/bready, and lightly sticky mouthfeel that is great. Slight lingering resins/rinds through the glass. Mild increasing warmth of 7.2% through the glass. Overall this is a delicious NEIPA. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink with the mildly bitter/drying finish, great soft feel. Feels like Simcoe, Centennial, Columbus. Very juicy and lightly dank/earthy hops; with a great balancing wheat/oat/malt malt backbone. Light residual sweetness with lingering dryness. A very enjoyable offering, and impressive spot on style example. Felt a bit old, but still delicious.

Can: Clear, dark amber with a short, off-white head. Orange, caramel scent. Taste is caramel malt, orange....and alcohol. Earthy and alcohol bittering. Pretty good....and wonderful label art as a bonus.)

Draft at the brewery. Deep orange-red-brown body, medium dissipating beige head. Tangy, fruity nose with apricot, hay, and butterscotchy diacetyl. Slick body, with fermented apricot and peach, hay, and again buttery diacetyl notes. Sweet and somewhat boozy. Had the potential to be much better than it was minus the diacetyl.

Draft at the brewery, version 65. Deep brown-black body, thin light brown head. Served very cold. Nose of cocoa and roasted malts. Body sharply carbonated, with inky coffee bean, sharp roast, and a general bitterness, punctuated by hints of sweet chocolate. Bitter finish, boozy and warming. Subtle complexity and nice balance but it just seemed insubstantial. Curious if the beer changed with brewer turnover.
