Actually I hated this beer. It did nothing for me. Oktoberfest beers are not my favorite style but I do like them. Not this one. Some metallic taste and funky aftertaste. No redeeming qualities. I rarely pour beers down the drain but the two I have tried were terrible. The other 4 may be trashed. Might have something to do with the water Yellowhammer uses.

Beautiful clear amber gold color with good cap and lacing.
Aroma of sweet caramel malt and toffee. I get an edge of freshness which may be hops but it's just a light sprinkling.
Taste of deep caramel malt with a bit of toffee thrown in. If they are using some roasted malt as well I'm not tasting it. Fairly simple flavors that are full without being aggressive. Hopping level is low and I think sweetness is being emphasized here.
Medium full texture with balancing carbonation.
Brewer says they are using a combination of German Vienna and Munich malts and the flavors have the accompanying sweetness we associate with those. It may be my grumpy old age but I'm less drawn to sweetness now than I was in my younger days. Anyway, it's good beer and worth a go if you come across one.

I tried their Oktoberfest, because I try everyone's Oktoberfest when I can. It was in the same class as their other beers - very good, just not outstanding. I got this as part of a flight and polished it off with no problem, so I guess that means I'd get it again if I had the chance.
