Of the Oktoberfest beers that I've sampled thus far, this Spaten is definitely right at the top of my favorites list!!! When I make it over to Germany, Munich and this brewery are definitely on my list of attractions to visit!!!
When poured this beer sports a hearty head that stays well with the beer all the way through. Its deep 'caramely' brown body (much like a hearty cream soda from those old-fashioned soda fountains!) and caramel scent were just almost too much to bear while taking pics of the brew! There's a very well-balanced combination of caramel, hops and malt with this fine brew that sits well and proves to be a very easy drinkable beer.
An awesome beer to pair up with some delicious brats hot off the grill!!!
