UPDATED: DEC 27, 2021 Can from First Choice Liquor on 10 December 2021. Nice malty backbone with some caramel and nutty flavours going on. Medium bodied and easy to drink. Starts and ends malty.

UPDATED: DEC 26, 2021 16 fl oz can into glass. From 1st Choice, Springfield, QLD. Brown beer with a thin white head of foam. Nose of malt and chocolate. Light carbonation, tiny bubbles. Good body, smooth and viscous. Easy drinking, finish is sweet at first dry later. A bit like milk chocolate followed by dark chocolate. Excellent, tasty.

UPDATED: OCT 10, 2021 16 oz mug draft at the Cityside Tavern in Brighton, Massachusetts. The pour is a clear copper brown with a small light tan head. The aroma is nut, caramel malt along with some grass. The taste is clean and fresh nutty caramel malt, chewy, the grass, earth and some mineral. The palate is light to medium bodied with active carbonation and the grass earth mineral finish. Nice one, crazy drinkable.

UPDATED: OCT 8, 2021 Taster at SBWF 2021. Hazy amber with a small head. Bread, caramel, malt and some fruit. Drinkable but not that interesting.

UPDATED: OCT 7, 2021 --Canned at SBWF 2021. -- Hazy pale bronze colour, small head. Bready, fruity nose. Dry, bready. Bread and caramel. Long bitter finish.

UPDATED: SEP 29, 2021 From can (pkgd Feb'21) in dimpled mug. Pours clear bronze w/an inch of tan froth, aroma is earthy & nutty w/a whiff of smoke. Rich tasty caramel malt body, a touch of aniseed, light bitterness. Still in great nick after shipping!

UPDATED: SEP 14, 2021 Pours clear, dark amber with a two finger, light tan head. Aroma is molasses, roast and light nuttiness. Taste is brown sugar and light cashew, moving to strong roast. Finish is roast, brown sugar and cashew.

UPDATED: AUG 27, 2021 Loved this beer. It was well balanced and stayed tasty even as it warmed. Nice medium feel and lots of great flavor. Low bitterness. Some citrus or fruit notes. Loved it

UPDATED: AUG 26, 2021 Into an Oktoberfest dimple at just on chilled. Honey hued and not quite bright in the glass. Deep, rich amber body and shimmering in the lights. Compact, tight off-white crown dons it weaving a messy lace. Nutty, dried fruit and umami nose hinting at a fresh roasted trail mix and toffee brittle. On the palate it is a collection of the nose amplified. Deliciously malty; melanoidins on high. Light smoke, burnt wood, red wood, roasted nuts with toffee flourishing. A mix of hop and malt on the finish offering a subtle bitterness. Lengthy, nutty and granola-like malty swallow. Aftertaste of smoky malt and burnt caramel. Body is medium-light and the carbonation gives it a soft feel with only mild spritz upfront. Absolutely a harmonious and well crafted lager. Sessionable and contemplative. A delight!!!

UPDATED: JUL 27, 2021 Draught at Rail Trail Flatbread, 7/24/21.
Light amber-to-copper-golden, good clarity. Off-white head atop is small and shows moderate-to-low retention.
Nose is bready and caramelly and with very minimal hops. Maybe a bit of herbal/earthiness at best. But it's clean and the malt is mostly filled by the base malt without an overabundance of specialty (vienna) malt. No alcohol or flaw.
Soft, malty and well-attenuated with a bit of toastiness on the finish and plenty of breadiness through the middle. Honey, cream and lightly earthy hops also enter the mix with engaging carbonation and no alcohol or flaw. Yep, it's a Vienna.
