Allusion Brewing 1810 Oktoberfest
What the brewers say
“Lightly sweet, malt-forward aroma, hints of caramel. Floral and herbal. Balanced bitterness.”
What our panel thought
“Light, malty, slightly funky. A restrained, almost-wild yeast character adds interesting complexity. Hop bitterness pleasantly lingers. ”
What our editors thought
“Mellow, restrained caramel nose with suggestions of orange peel and spice. Leans quite sweet in flavor, with some caramelized-sugar tones. Low bitterness never manages to help balance. Medium- bodied, relatively low carbonation, with some lingering sugar-cloy on the tongue.”
