Compared to Ska Oktoberfest 10/2022:

Overall: This one drinks nice and much like a Rye or Vienna lager. Nice rye spice and Vienna malt flavors. Spicy and bitter off the end. yet while being clean and dry. Not too sweet and I really appreciate that. A nice change of pace from some of the sweeter American Marzens (Rating: 4.05)

*On my second review much more orange citrus and floral orange. Much hoppier, vague malts. Muted. Not as good as I remember. (Rating: 3.58)

Pours a clear light copper color with a khaki head . Smell has biscuit, baked bread dark fruits and wheat. Taste follows the nose with raisins and date notes ,baked bread malts and some citrus hops . A sweet mouth feel malty with caramel .
