Pours a clear dark copper-brown color with a medium dense off-white head that dissipates slowly. Strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of bready malt and hops. Light body with flavors of toasted malt, grain and grassy hops. The finish is short with a caramel malt aftertaste. Just average overall.

Pours clear fora hefe. Smell is a little citrusy. Taste is stronger for ahefe, more like a wheat ale. Good sizzle on the palate. Yes, that ale attribute is really getting on my nerves. Yes, starts out a little citrusy then has a slight processed ale finish. Does have some bubble gum and banana notes.

From a twist off bottle. Has some mild hop aroma but nothing special, I almost had to look for the the smell. Quite intense hop flavor but nothing really impressive. Does leave a good long astringent bitter finish on the back of the tongue. Look of this stuff is like a slightly darker pale lager, but not much darker. Does have a fair amount of sizzle on the palte. Boy, that nasty astringent hop thing on the back of my tongue leaves an everlasting impression.

bottle - Pours clear red with a small head. It has a very mild caramel/toffee malt aroma. The flavor is sweet caramel and bready malt a not much else. Pretty bland.

From a twist off bottle. Slight freindly lemon aroma. Very litttle haze in a lager looking thing. Taste is fairly mild and acceptable. Decent amount of co2. Has a touch of the slaggy thing going on. Overall decent beer experience. Better than expected. no sharp edges in this pilsner.

Looks nice out of a bottle, twist off. Smoother malt impact. Pretty good sizzle. Co2 covers any perceivable ill attitudes. Finish is rather smooth, getting better than I thought it was.

bottle - Pours clear red with a one finger off-white head. It smells of caramel malt and tastes of sweet toasted caramel malt with a touch of bitterness. Overall it’s a drinkable but bland and underwhelming Irish red. Okay.

Gold color. Very sweet and some hopes. A little citrus, but more herbal and dry hop character. It is actually ok, palate is right, and there are enough hops you know what you are drinking.

12 ounce bottle into pint glass, no bottle dating. Pours fairly clear orange copper color with a nice 2 finger dense off white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Good spotty lacing clings to the glass. Aromas of caramel, apple, pear, biscuit, grape, toast, nuttiness, herbal, floral, and light earth. Pretty nice aromas with decent strength and balance. Taste of caramel, toast, biscuit, apple, pear, nuttiness, herbal, grass, and earthy spiciness. Small amount of spicy bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of light fruit, caramel, toast, biscuit, and herbal on the finish for a good bit. Good balance of flavors with decent complexity. Fairly robust with no cloying sweetness at all. Medium carbonation and body; with a fairly creamy and crisp mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is well hidden with only a slight warming noticed after the finish. Overall this is a nice oktoberfest. Good flavor balance; very crisp and smooth to drink. Enjoyed this quite a bit.

This is an ok pils. Dry and lightly hopped, but the hops are there for sure. Lager yeast is in the aroma. Low carbonation for the style, but it has the unmistakable pils flavor lacking in the standard yellow lagers.
