Stoudts Oktoberfest

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 7

12oz bottle. Light copper color with thin white head. Full aroma of sweet malts, pale malts and something vaguely citrus mixed with butter. Flavor is much like the aroma with sweet malts, pale malts, what I think may be semi sweet grapefruit hop flavor, some hop bitterness and fresh bread.

My very first Stoudt. Slight sweet toffee aroma. Darker than your typical pale yellow american beer. Not bitter on the hit and no bitter finish but, had just a little teeny bitter linger.

Comes out of the tap a coppery amber with a fine-bubbled, fairly persistent white head. Spicy, malty aroma is rather inviting, saying "Gimme a try!" Flavor is malty, spicy, fruity and a little woody - maybe not downright lip-smacking, but definitely pleasant. Texture is lively, tingly and woody. Prosit!

Top tier Oktoberfest from Stoudts. Amazed at how good this is. Malts and noble hops are in harmony and the clean sweetness is amazing. Great example.

This poured a dark golden color with a white head. The aroma contains some corn, grass, and caramel. The flavor is rather malty with some corn, citrus, and caramel showing up. Overall this doesnt seem much like an O-fest but a decent beer nonetheless.

A nice clear light orange amber pour with a frothy white head that leaves a cap and ring along with some lazy lacing throughout. A bit of Noble-type hops upfront in the aroma, somewhat like a pilsner, grassy and slight citrus, with a bit of sweet malts. Taste is much like the aroma with some hops upfront, then a nice light malt balance then some more slight hops and a slight bitter linger.

A clear amber colored beer. A frothy textured off white head rises modestly above. Decent hang time transiting from a light film/ringlet to nothing at all. I do sit on my beers awhile. The nose is bready with a slight bittering. There is a nice malt, grassy flavoring to a light, crisp very good marzen.

Presentation: It was poured from a brown 12oz bottle into a big dimpled mug. There is no noticeable freshness date on the bottle. Appearance: It has a deep rich golden body with visible carbonation and good clarity. A two finger thick and foamy white head sits on top. It slowly fades to a thin layer that hangs on well and some slick lacing. Smell: The aroma is light and has a delicate light grain note with a slight hint of spicy hops. Taste/Palate: It has a crisp pale biscuity malt with some light roasted notes as well. There is a mild sweetness from the malt and a nice equal balance of bitterness and leafy/grassy/spicy hop flavor notes. It finishes crisply with a slight balance towards the bitter hop side. The palate has a medium body with plenty of active carbonation. Notes: Stoudts has an extremely drinkable crisp body and nice simple flavor that I could drink plenty of with some soft sour dough pretzels and mustard.

Bottle: Fresh sample. Pours a deep amber orange lager in the glass. Sticky white cap lasts and laces well. Aroma of baked bread, herbs and caramel..very nice! Great bready-toasty-nutty malts infront are played off with some substantial woody-herbal hopping....big finish...bready and yet drying. good interpretation of the style

I love Oktoberfest style beers and I like seeing U.S. breweries doing there versions. Very good!
