Brew Crew 10/06/06 Hofbrau Oktoberfest


Brew Crew, October 06 2006, Hofbrau Oktoberfest
Description from: www.hofbrauhausnewport.com:
Hofbräu Seasonal: “Oktoberfest” (6.0 % Alc. by Volume)
…. Specialty in October
A flavorful lager with a slightly spicy hint of hops in flavor and finish. A little fuller than our Hofbräu Lager. This beer was originally made to celebrate the wedding of Prince Ludwig and changed to this more blond style.

Sorry this one took so long to post. Hofbrau Oktoberfest has a very strong smell. It has a bitter taste that doesn't last very long. I rate this as a Finisher.

the color is deep yellow, tinted slightly red, and the beer has almost no head. the odor is harsh, and the taste is so hopsy, my roommates could taste it. it's hard to swallow, and a battle to finish.
the actual flavor isn't too bad, but it's also not that good, and it's really strong. pass.
