Batch 94 Oktoberfest tasting notes

Cold

Pours nice orange, pretty cloudy, small fine tan head that clings at edge

Aroma tart fruit, apples, sweet malt in background, grainy

Mouth feel clean upfront, but cloys a bit at finish

Flavor grainy melanoiden, solid bitterness at end, malty with hop bitter at end. 

Finish cloyingly bitter.

Overall hard to say if graininess is too much hops or just the way the Munich works.  Try cutting with pils, fewer IBUs, and move hops further back in the boil.
