Octoberfest: Brooklyn

      Ah, October,  beautiful time of year, at least around these parts.  One of the finer things of fall is delicious Octoberfest, one of the best beers of the year.  I already mentioned the very good Prosit, Imperial Octoberfest, but now it's time to hit the rest.  First up, is Brooklyn Oktoberfest, with a K, from the Brooklyn Brewery in ahhh Brooklyn.  Boy the label is boring, kind of retro, still sucks. It pours a nice dark amber and has a really nice rich sweet caramel and light mocha nose.  The first sip is good with a nice hop that energizes the mouth.  The caramel and mocha are nice.  This has nice balance, but the flavors aren't as good as the intoxicating nose.  This is a good Octoberfest with the classic flavor profile.  I could of course drink a ton of these, but I'm hoping for better.
