look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Appearance: The amber colored liquid is capped by a modest head that leaves some streaks of lace

Smell: Caramel, pear and spice cake

Taste: Caramel and pear flavors, up front, with spice cake and white pepper tones developing, in the middle; the finish was somewhat dry though there was also residual sweetness lingering in the aftertaste

Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate carbonation

Overall: An interesting take on the style that combines both the malt forward aspects of an Oktoberfest with the yeast character of a Biere de Garde
