COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The Martian Marzen Lager falls under the Octoberfest/Marzen style. A wonderful caramel sweetness and aroma best describes this smooth, full-bodied beer. Hallertau hops are used for bittering and flavor. Pilsner, Munich, crystal and chocolate malts are mashed at 154°F. The Martian is fermented with Bavarian lager yeast at 50°F for approximately 21 days.

Nice amber color and malty aroma with caramel/sweetness. The flavor was malty with kind of a tea taste. The beer was easy to drink.

bluejacket74 (716) - Reynoldsburg, Ohio, USA - MAR 17, 2012
22 ounce bottle. This just showed up at a local beer store recently for $1.99 a bomber, and I have no idea how old this bottle is. However, the label on the bottle is different than the one shown on BA for this brew, and the label lettering/design does look more like what Buckeye has been using on some of their other bottles lately so hopefully it’s a new batch of this beer. Served in a mug, the beer pours a slightly hazy orange/amber color with about an inch off-white head. Head retention and lacing are both good. Aroma is nice, it smells like bready and caramel malt, grassy and herbal hops, and a bit of apple. Taste is similar to the aroma, with it tasting like bready and caramel malt, along with some grassy and herbal hops. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it’s a bit slick and sticky with good carbonation. I think this is a solid overall brew, and for just $1.99 I’d buy this again in the future. Definitely worth a try at that price.

pottygok (239) - Ohio, USA - DEC 20, 2011
Aroma: Faint hints of caramel, but almost nonexistent. Appearance: Clear dark gold with nice, white head. Taste: Light-medium sweetness with hints our bitterness in the finish. Palate: Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation, soft finish. Overall: It’s a solid, quaffable beer, but not a standout in any way.

Swalden28 (2657) - McKinney, Texas, USA - APR 22, 2009
Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours a hazy amber with white head. Aroma was of very, very faint floral and citrus, not much here. Flavor is a little odd, some malt, very faint nuttiness, some hop flavor, not impressive.....Mouth feel is medium body, high, fizzy carbonation, kinda watery. Overall, not impressed at all, but very drinkable......dull but somewhat interesting.
