Canned 8/8/19

Pours a crystal-clear dark copper body with a slight off-white head; sub-par retention leaves a thin collar and minimal spotting of quickly fading lacing.

Aroma brings a quick whiff of Lemon Pledge followed by musty grass undertone; softens over time to highlight fleeting minor grain, toasty malts, and brown bread.

Taste opens with lemon, toasted malts, and a hint of artificial toffee, with very soft bread crust in the background.

Mouthfeel shows a thin body with moderate carbonation; roast takes a backseat to minor tartness, while the finish develops fairly watery through the swallow.

While the dominant characteristics fall just shy of offensive, what's left offers minimal character; sloppy, light, and unfortunately a comprehensively underwhelming take on the style.

16 oz can. 7 Days Fresh

A: Pours a dark amber color. Thin off white head bubbles off to a thinner ring around glass. Lots of carbonation is visible. Nice color.

S: Grains. Malt. Dough and some spices. Light hops. Maybe floral and grassy. Pretty clean aroma.

T/M: Malty. Earthy. Caramel. Sweet. Bread. Has a thin crisp feel. Carbonation is strong. Dry.

O: Good. Has all the Oktoberfest flavors but seems a little off.

Cheers!

Looks wonderful. Clear dark copper body with a 1 inch white foamy head. Dissipates quickly leaving not a hint of a cap or ring.
Grainy, doughy aroma up front followed by floral hops.
The taste is sweet roasted malts, a touch cloying, bitter caramel followed red apple. The hops are floral and earthy with a touch of thinned out Ricola.
The body is on the light side with moderate carbonation. A bit much for the style.
