ABITA BREWING CO. - FALL FEST This is Abitas Oktberfest offering. Has a decent aroma of caramel malts and a little nuttiness. Taste has some malt sweetness and some caramel in the finish. Pretty light and mild overall. Decent but not memorable. Just a average Oktoberfest style beer. Seems to me most Abita beers are like this, not bad, nothing special, just a nice average beer. I would drink it again if offered, but probably wouldnt seek it out.
LAKEFRONT BREWERY INC - OKTOBERFEST LAGER The aroma is a nice caramel malt with some sweet grains amd maybe some fruit notes.Taste has some caramel and nuts and that is complimented by the breadniness. I didnt notice any hops, but that is typical of the style. Pretty much your typical Oktoberfest Marzen style beer. This is easy to drink, but just kind of average, nothing really wows me about it.
NEW HOLLAND BREWING COMPANY - ICHABOD ALE Kind of a weak aroma, mostly pumpkin with a hint of cinnamon. The taste is a smooth blend if pumpkin pie and a little spice. Not as sweet as some of the other pumpkin beers i have tried, which is nice. Seems to have a little more of malt base than others, very well balanced. Nice and easy drinking, could drink a few of these in one setting no problem.
TOM PETTY - INTO THE GREAT WIDE OPEN You can never go wrong with a little Petty. I really enjoy this one and think it is maybe one of his most underappreciated records. Great production and great songs lead to a great listen. You still hear Learning To Fly and Into The Great Wide Open on the radio quite often, but there are some other good songs too: Kings Highway, Two Gunslingers, All The Wrong Reasons, and You And I Will Meet Again. Good stuff.
