Growler.
Aroma has a nice malt base with hints of caramel.
Appearance is as it should be. Orange/amber. Clear. Heads settles too quickly to a ring.
Solid malt flavor. Good dryness with a shot of bitterness.
Nice overall softness. Appropriate sense of fullness from carbonation. Medium feel.
Solid and tasty version of style.

On tap, Autumn Brew Review, 2005...

Clear medium orange color, decent 1/4 inch head on the glass. Looping string laces mark the glass adequately. Fresh aroma, quite bready with a slight toasted dryness. Medium body, pleasant with a nice shortbread flavor with light cinnamon. Finishes with a broad grainy spread on the palette. Not overly malty and thick (like Barley John's) but nice middle-of-the road example and one of the better Oktoberfests I've had this year.

A bright pumpkin orange colored beer, with a nice sized creamy off-white head. Smell is actually more hop evident than the sweeter malt smells of most o-fests. Taste is also very hoppy and somewhat dry for the style. I did like the deviation from the norm. A good beer, enjoyed at the brewpub.
