Comments:  I am convinced that my rating of a beer is influenced by the atmosphere of the  location where I am drinking the beer.  Last year I drank this bier @ Mecklenburg Gardens & it was excellent.  This year I'm drinking a stein at home & it's just another Oktoberfest Bier.  Amber color with a foamy 2" head.   Smells of malted barley, caramel & toffee.  Tastes smooth & drinkable - sweet malt taste with a slight hop finish!  My rating is probably too harsh - Paulaner Salvator Thomasbraeu AG has been brewing bier since 1634!
