Orangish amber color, miminal head & lacing. Pleasant hazelnut aroma.

Taste is a quite synthetic sweet hazelnut finishing with a metallic annoying aftertaste.

Watery feel and cloying finish makes me want a differenet brew ASAP to wash out the taste. Not as nasty as their O-fest, but it's one and done with this guy for me.

Nice clarity for a dark auburn colored beer. Gives you a beige head of over a half an inch, even if it does not yield the desired lace or retention thereof. Aroma was mildly sweet and nutty I guess. Sure.

Even more mild tastewise. Thin body. Not much roasting of said malt backbone, which is kinda lacking. Its a smooth brown lager. Oktoberfestish.

I remember having this on tap a few years ago. Nothing to write home about.
