This beer was really hyped up to me and I am failing to see why. Pretty run of the mill and definately nothing special. Pretty good just didn’t live up to what I heard about it. sneagrams3 (1764), St. Louis, Missouri, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Oct 23, 2007 Tasted 10/10/07. 12oz bottle. Filtered with a golden hue. Noisy effervescence. Slight ring of white head. Acceptable bready caramel nose. Light to medium bodied with overt effervescence. Caramel malts and tingling acidic citrus hops. Off dry and mildly sticky. Slight fruity flavor. Slight bitterness. Too hoppy. Only a moderate attempt. Touch watery. Ever so slight apple note. Meh... eaglefan538 (2405), Wilmington, Delaware, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 13, 2007 Bottle, courtesy Bockyhorsey. Poured an amber color, very generous initial head with solid retention, nice lacing. The aroma was grassy hops and some caramel. Flavor was grassy hops over top of caramel and pilsner-like qualities, bread and honey. An added spiciness, yet the grassy hops reappear in the aftertaste (Saaz?) and keep this from being anything vienna-like. Not my preferred take on a marzen, yet for what it was, quite nice. Mouthfeel was malty / carbonated. Thanks, Bill and Wendy! lovemyipas (420), sw burbs, Illinois, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 8, 2007 pours yellow with a one finger fluffy white head. aroma is malt with some hops and a little corn. has a light body with good lacing and carbonation. flavor is the same as aroma but a bit stronger. has a dry hop aftertaste it is not bad but nothing special. has some sediment floating around, kind of a souped up pilsner/ pale ale/ marzen. now as it warms some caramel malt and orange peel show up in the flavor and aroma. so i am bumping up the scores a little and the hops show up a little more also. jcr (1195), Jasper, Indiana, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 30, 2007 Bottle. Dominated by malts, this Oktoberfest beer is smooth and enjoyable. Light amber color with a small, off-white head. Bready, grainy aroma with notes of sweet caramel. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. Nicely carbonated. Smooth texture and medium bodied. prosqtor (408), Appleton, Wisconsin, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 19, 2007 In a shaker from the tap. Pours a light amber / pale orange color. Thin head that disappears. Malty, slightly fruity taste. A clear finish, and bitterness that makes this a good Marzen, if a bit fizzy in mouthfeel. BustedFlat (554), Edina, Minnesota, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 14, 2007 12 ounce bottle. Shaker glass. Cloudy yellow with a medium head. Aroma - grain and citrus. Flavor was malty with some caramel and a sort of fruitiness I could not put my finger on. Maybe a hint of orangle peel. Some bitterness and a crisp tangy mouthfeel. This one kind of grows on you.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 29, 2007 Grainy, corny aroma, and a grainy, corny flavor. Tasty, and uncomplicated. Mildly peppery finish. Thanks to Buckybeer for the trade!
