Fresh, light fruity aroma, light cookie maltiness. Nice frothy head, clear golden color. Light malty, pithy flavor, light sweetness. Light to medium bodied. Astringent dry finish. Light metallic. O.K., standard beer. A bit light.

Tap at Hallertauer Bierfestival 2012. Pale golden, lacing head indistinguishable from the pils I had before, but they assured me the kegs were different. Weird. Light hop aromantics, salty, minerally, leafy. Medium Chewy body.

Bottle@brewpub, comes as Märzen Spezial. It’s dark golden with a creamy head. The aroma has notes of caramel, candy sugar and malt. The flavor has a moderate sweetness and notes of caramel, candy sugar, malt, light straw and the finish is slightly dry.

bottle, bought at the brewery. Clear golden yellow, mid-sized fluffy white head. Grainy aroma. Sweetish-malty and grainy flavours with shy hop notes in the background.

Bottle: Golden to deep golden coloured, rather quickly vanishing white head, grainy, slightly metallic nose with traces of bisquits and alcohol, shy aromatic hops in the background; moderate bitter-sweet flavour, light bodied; short, faint bitter-sweet finish. Almost bland brew with a little hoppiness in the aftertaste......

(bottle) Clear, pale golden colour with a short foamy white head. Medium-sweet, soft-grainy malt aroma with a touch of honey and a spicy barnyard-like blend. Light-sweet flavour with a whiff of acidity that does not result from expiration, quite light bodied according its abv with a moderate carbonation. Pale malt-character, slightly chalky with notes of honey; dry, light bitter and slim finish. Very unspectacular Märzen, but also easy going and not really bad.
