antzman (307), Clarksville, Indiana, USA Nov 14, 2007 Bottle from the Clay and Main brewery. Pours a coppery red with a thin off white head. Excellent lacing on the glass with plenty of lively carbonation. The aroma is malty with caramel and toffee. The flavor is of caramel, malts, toffee, with a slightly sweet finish.
502Flavors (345), Louisville, Kentucky, USA Oct 12, 2008 On tap at Frankfort Avenue Beer Depot. Really nutty woody character that, for me, was a bit too much leading the beer to be almost syrupy in flavor and generally out of balance. Looked great though. Couldn’t have more that one, maybe two. Won’t purchase this one again with so many other good BBC stuff out there. puggy211 (371), cordova, Tennessee, USA Feb 19, 2008 pours dark amber color off white head,malty sroma with hints of hopps.Interesting smelll. Crafty07 (343), Lexington, Kentucky, USA Jan 20, 2008 Real German Marzen’s are not copper colored but I’m willing to be most Americans think that they are. Why else do almost Marzen’s from the states have the same hue? Other than the color, though, I’m very impressed with the little brewery from Louisville with their attempt. It’s smooth, well balanced, malty but not too sweet and extremely quaffable. Well done, BBC! BelgianBeerGal (1035), Sabbatical in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Dec 30, 2007 Bottled. Clear bronze colour with a white film on top. Sweet caramel, malty aroma. Very clean flavour wih a little hop bittereness and balanced with more sweet malt. Enjoyable marzen. GeneralGao (2628), Iowa City, Iowa, USA Nov 21, 2007 12 oz bottle. Batch #7-69. Poured a clear copper color. Head was a light khaki color with decent retention and lacing. Pleasant, but understated aroma of brown sugar, light molasses, and hints of noble hops and caramel. There was mild hop bitterness of about 2-3 out of 10. Tasted of light malty molasses with some nice spicy black pepper at the end.
