The beer poured a translucent pale gold with plenty of effervescence and a bubbly light tan coloured head that lasted a while. The aroma was floral hops and grainy malt. No sweet caramellish tones to be found. The mouthfeel was medium bodied, slightly creamy with medium carbonation. The flavour is well balanced. Lots of grassy maltiness balanced out by slightly bitter hops. Not as bitter as a lot of German beers, and not as 'sweet' as other Oktoberfests

The beer was translucent gold with orange hues and a white foamy head. The aroma was grainy malt, some floral hops, and a hint of yeastiness. The mouthfeel was weak to medium bodied, with medium carbonatoin. The flavour was watered down malt, and detracted from the looks and aroma of this beer. The finish was bitter, but not so much hoppy.
