COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Ayinger Oktober Fest Märzen has a deep golden color tinted with amber. It is lightly sweet with a malty nose balanced with floral hops. Its medium to big body and alcohol is not overpowering. The soft dryness comes from long maturation.

Bottle from Wegmans Sterling - I tried this one about a month ago and just remember that I liked it. I’m about 15 reviews behind I think.

Nice golden brown pour with a medium white head that reduces pretty fast. Not much on the nose for me. Some sweet malt. Medium body. Clean and refreshing finish. Really like this beer.

Draught at bar. Amber color, white head. Malty taste with citrus, caramel, toast and some bitterness. Dry bitter finish. Good seasonal brew.

Smells like bread. Pours with a large white head about 3 fingers and it quickly dissipated. Very clear and copper colored with slight lacing. Carmel up front with a touch of hops and finished with almost a bread flavor. Not bad at all. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

500ml bottle, been trying to move through some German beers lately so I can educate myself. nice orange-amber color, good foamy head. Smells like lager, eh. Flavor is just a real lager, grain, type of event. Shit was good but nothing stellar. I could probably knock back a couple liter of this and pass out on a picnic table. Nein!

Great beer. One of the best Octoberfests I’ve had. Discovered a few years ago and have found there are very few that can match the taste of the, caramely delicious flavor and after taste.

Zeswaft (1275) - Seattle, Washington, USA - NOV 16, 2012
Not much in the way of aroma or appearance. Flavor is very nutty and grainy/wheat. Highly drinkable and not too full bodied like a lot of oktoberfests...i’m looking at you sam adams

Beerenberger (800) - Fischer, Texas, USA - NOV 14, 2012
Aroma is malt with notes of grain. Pours a clear amber with a active, but mostly diminishing off-white head. Taste is a light sweetness. Sweet malts, grains, and bread. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Overall, I like this Märzen. Would drink again.

Fatehunter (754) - Corbett, Oregon, USA - NOV 10, 2012
Big three fingers of head, copper colored body. A nice grain and fresh bread smell. Good malt flavor with just enough sweetness. Smooth all the way through with almost no bitter profile. Almost a creamy texture, soft with low carbonation and medium body. An excellent märzen.

beerproject (109) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - NOV 8, 2012
Aroma is caramel and aromatic malt along with a little banana bread, very good aroma for a lager. Taste is a restrained smooth bitterness with a touch of caramel sweet malts and the delicious oktoberfest yeast flavor you’d expect. This is a really good oktoberfest.
