Blue Point's Oktoberfest poured a clear amber color with a thumb width, off white head.  The nose is pleasant, with a light sweetness and malt underneath strong aromas of bready yeast.  The body has pale malt and a light sweetness up front before thinning out a little in the middle.  There are faint hops underneath before a mild, dry, yeasty finish.  There was some lacing left on the glass.  Overall, this is a decent take on the style.  The beer gets a little thin in the middle but is not overly sweet, and the malt and yeast work well together.   

The ultimate resource for beer drinkers!
