Pours a very clear amber / organe color with medium white head. The aroma is of toasty malt with some fruity hops slightly noticeable. The taste is nicely balanced, with dryness at first followed by bitterness, and finishing with a good malty character. A little big fro a traditional Oktoberfest but a very drinkable beer.

Mar 30, 2008 Thanks to Mike for this one. Dark gold body, no head formation. Aroma is sweet and malty. Grainy malt flavor, somewhat sweet, and there’s a vegetable quality in there somewhat.

Mar 24, 2008 Bomber from Kevin. Golden honey colored body, mostly clear. Sweet, sticky honey malt, medium thickness for a marzen, it’s oily and hoppy but not overhoppy, just a bit more than usual for the style... overall clean and simple, tastes of corn, wheat, fish (?). Not bad.

Mar 23, 2008 22oz bottle, courtesy of acrdz. Thanks, Mike! Pours a hazy orange color; thin off-white head with patchy lacing. Light, crisp aroma showing candy sugar and a touch of fruit. Medium mouthfeel: candy sugar, tropical fruit, and an overripe, almost pumpkin-like note; reasonably chewy and drinkable. Medium finish: residual sugar and malty sweetness and cantaloupe.
