Draft sampler at the 2023 Rocky Water Brew Fest. Clear gold color with an off-white head and great retention. Unfortunately, this Oktoberfest beer gets lost among all the other beers. And the flavor is very muddy. Not a fan.

Dark amber, bright, no head. Rich malt, caramel and figs, lots of hop bitterness, orange peel, and then some alcohol kicking into the finish.

Slight haze, thin head, pale. Some alcohol, hints of grapefruit, clean pale malt. Medium bitterness. Well balanced, that'�s a theme here.

Opaque and looks a bit dull. Medium head. Fruity, estery, low bitterness, a fairly full body without excessive sweetness. But some more bitterness would really help this to pop.

Pale amber, medium head. Big banana, smells like it'�s going to be sweet and highly phenolic. Balanced palate, nice wheaty character, touch of acidity from the wheat, has a touch of alcohol, not at all too sweet or phenolic. Damn, hard style to nail and they did it.

Opaque, big bright nectarine, pi�a, orange. Palate has sweet pale malt and again a bright hop profile. This is very good.

16oz can pours a lightly hazy yellow, frothy white head. Nose has some tropicals, light straw and grass. Floral, some oats and grist, melon and pineapple sherbet. Pithy finish, maybe a touch oxidized.

Canned (Thanks GotOfThunder!). Black colour, mediumsized brown head. Aroma is toasted, nutty, roasted and chocolaty. Flavour is nutty, chocolaty, some zest, a bit fruity elements with some toasted and mild toffeeish and fudge like notes.
