Rich clove and citrus aroma. Clear and bright gold with large foamy head. Clean maltiness (?) - very light hopping. Soft body. Metallic off-taste fades near the end of the glass.

Cloudy yellow color with a thick head and citric (pineapple) aroma. I find German Wheat beers to be a little on the sweet side for my tastes.

Very clean, crisp flavours; balanced tettnang hoppiness; gentle bready malts underneath; finishes lean for a Bavarian pils, with a lingering bitterness.

Very good example. I hear alot that this is the best of the Munich OFests - but I'd have to say I still prefer the others. This did have a nice toffeeish flavor though - with slight toasted and burnt caramel notes. Excellent dark amber color and noticeable alcohol warming, which is borderline detracting from drinkability. Primary drawback is a slightly heavy palate. Caramelized toasty munich malts border on cloying in this example. Under-attenuated? A little darker than some Ofests, too.

Very nice - balanced. Lovely whitish golden color with a big foamy head. Clean malt with a crisp, lightly spicy hop flavor and medium bitterness. Very quaffable.
