2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Poured a crystal clear dark amber color with a tall off-white creamy head. The aroma was faint and of tart yeasty bread. The best part of the beer was the appearance. A nice clear dark amber with a tall head and lots of carbonation bubbles rising up through the glass. The initial taste was crisp & clean and slightly dry initially. There was also a good amount of carbonation. There was a mild bitterness that developed towards the finish, but not much else as far as flavor goes.

Tastes much better than you might expect. I’m an oktoberfest collector and I was pleasantly surprised.

12 oz bottle. Pours on the copper side of amber in colour, with moderate frothy off white head. Aroma and taste are right on style, nice sweet malt. Good stuff.

Maybe should’ve pulled this one out of the fridge a bit earlier... Pours clear amber with a big foamy tan head. Aroma is sour and funky with some grainy notes. Saved somewhat by a nice bittersweet flavor but not an Oktoberfest I’d turn to again.

Clear amber with a medium, frothy, beige head. Aroma of toast, cinnamon, and caramel. Taste is semi-sweet malt, some toasty flavors and a mild bitterness. Light bodied and a little thin, but all in all, a decent brew.

Brown lager. Malty nutty nose. Good spotty lace. Small bubbles. Flavor is 66% malt and the rest hops... this beer’s saving grace. The first.Fishing and body ate full, satisfying, and beer. Yes beer. A dark one. Enjoy it.

12oz bottle from a recent beer event. Pours a mostly clear caramel amber with an off-white head. Nose is caramel, slight bicuity malt, some bread, and some grains. Flavor is caramel, biscuity malt, bread, and grain. Finish is somewhat dry for a marzen- malt flavors don’t stick around, the yeast comes through and dries it out. For a macro marzen, this one is not half bad.
