2004 batch. Served at Duclaw’s rollout party of 2004. Served in a ceramic pint complimentary glass. Color is dark amber, a true Octoberfest colored beer. Aromas are of sweet malts, slight toastiness, earthy hops. Balanced to a "tee". Maltiness is well balanced by the noble hops, and nothing stands out above anything else. Smooth, creamy mouthfeel lends itself to easy drinkability. Rich mouthfeel isn’t too thick, nor too thin, but just right. A first class Octoberfest beer from the gang at Duclaw’s. You owe it to yourself to get a couple of growlers to go, like I did, before it’s all gone.
