Pours a lighter amber color with minimal head formation and light carbonation. Head is light with very little lacing and fast fading.
Lightly malty in the nose with very little hop presence.
Taste is quite malty with maybe Vienna or Munich malts. hops are quite low and settle into the background.
Medium feel smooth.
Drinks like your basic Octoberfest, ordinary and weak in flavor.

Cloudy caramel brown body with a beige head. Sweet fruit esters, caramel, and unnecessary booziness. Taste is way too sweet for an esb, but the malts help dull it by the finish, still one note on the flavor even for this simpler style. Feel is again oddly harsh in the start of the sip, but otherwise malty.
