Great Lakes Oktoberfest: Review


Great Lakes Brewing Co.
Cleveland, Ohio, USA
6.5% abv
Bottle size: 12 oz


One last oompah tune for this season. 

Appearance: Bright and clear amber body with a fine little off-white head.

Aroma: light sweet malty nose

Flavors: sweet grains, touch of caramel, with some smooth hops to boot. 

Mouthfeel: moderate carbonation, fairly smooth texture, lingering sweet grains left on the tongue.

My Strength Rating: 4 – a nice mild-medium Oktoberfest

To the Point: Nice is the best I can do for this one.  A good beer to drink though.  It is missing the Oktoberfest spice that I like.  Too much of a focus on the sweet grainy style for me.
