Paired with an LFD Colorado Oscuro Robusto thanks to m j toal from the Stanley Cup Final winnings. Found the brew to be light, probably the lightest of Oktoberfests I've had. Very complex on the front-end with a heavy caramel smoothness. But found the back-end to be flat, not creamy, with little carbonation. The brew poured a nice foamy head, but fizzled quickly. After the 4th or 5th photo the head was almost completely gone. This was the 1st shot after the initial pour.
