Canned on September 4th 2025,bought locally.
Pours a clear light amber with over a finger of foam, very good retention and lacing.
Smell is big note of bread, bit of caramel, light fruity notes, low level of bitterness.
The taste is bread, caramel malt, toasted malt, some caramel that doesn't translate to sweetness. Bitterness level is very low. This is more of a Marzen style of Oktoberfest than a Festbier.
Good mouthfeel and carbonation is spot on.
I would drink this again.

Aroma is boozy, orange candy circus peanuts, whiskey, woody, toffee, vanilla, coconut, butterscotch. Taste is a little sweet with strong flavors of whiskey, wood, and toffee. Even though the flavor of whiskey is strong here, and it smells boozy as fuck, it’s not hot or boozy whatsoever. It goes down really easy. Mouthfeel is nicely carbonated, but it seems a little watery. What I thought was going to be a hot boozy mess turned out to be really smooth and tasty. With some fine tuning with the texture and eliminating whatever creates that candy circus peanut off-note, this could be pretty amazing.

Aroma is almost overbearing at first, with notes of whiskey, coconut, chocolate, wood, molasses, cashew brittle. It mellows out considerably after warming in the glass, leaving a great smelling beer. Taste is moderately sweet with a bitter edge and lovely flavors of coconut-tinged whiskey barrels and chocolaty malts.
