I...I think it is a time of year type thing for me. I personally really enjoy Paulaner and Ayinger Marzen, but I really only make sure I have them when I've raked the leaves and it is about 50 outside with that crisp fall air, but outside of that I don't really like them.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06913054347911490028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32412760.post-43663248654069209952008-09-12T23:35:00.000-04:002008-09-12T23:35:00.000-04:00I agree Jim, that Left Hand was pretty decent. I ...I agree Jim, that Left Hand was pretty decent. I guess my point is that I've never had an Oktoberfest that made me sit up in my seat and say "Wow." Are there any other styles where there isn't that one (or more) version that really exemplifies the style?Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16055907121076453804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32412760.post-78289846295649230492008-09-12T18:49:00.000-04:002008-09-12T18:49:00.000-04:00So I am in love with Lakefront Brewery's Pumpkin A...So I am in love with Lakefront Brewery's Pumpkin Ale.

I just looked up a bunch of Oktoberfests from this post on BA and none of them score over a 4.0. Then I went to the grand Oktoberfest/Marzen list and there isn't a single beer with a sizable number of reviews (over 25) that scores over a 4.<BR/><BR/><B>My bold call</B>: this is a case of a style that nobody actually likes that much except that you're supposed to this time of year. Either that or there's some utopian version of Oktoberfest that the masses seem to think everybody sucks at reproducing.<BR/><BR/><I>Sorry, we're just not that into you.</I>CorrNDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15371462855078578516noreply@blogger.com
