I love this time of year - the summer heat is starting to fade, and it's time for a new season.  No, not football - the fall beer season.  Octoberfest beers are starting to hit the shelves, and this is definitely my favorite time for beers.  Tonight we grabbed some of what I think is one of the best beers that Sam Adams makes.  Their Octoberfest is very full-flavored with a beautiful golden red hue.

A delicious malty taste is what first hits with a very smooth after taste.  This is a great session beer.  I give it an A-.  This is definitely my favorite octoberfest beer that is made by a big producer - definitely worth picking up.

Aroma: Very mild earthy aroma.

Appearance:  Golden amber with a light head.

Flavor: Tastes like a lager - great amber ale.

Body: Full Flavored but still not too heavy.

Happy Octoberfest everybody!
