Commercial Description:
This smooth brew ushers in Autumn with an invitingly tawny color complemented by an assertive maltiness. A noble crispness from German and Czech hops completes this very traditional lager-style beer.

Pours a copper color with a white head. Aroma is caramel, apple, and roast. Flavor is caramel, apple, roast, and a bitter spicy finish.

Bottle courtesy of sloth. Pours copper with a thin white head. Smells of light spice and caramel. Tastes sweet and caramelly with a touch of roses, some earthy hints and a spicy finish.

20081002 12oz bottle, Spirits RB. Basic copper color with creamy beige head that lingers. Aroma is full of diacetyl, some earthy hops. Nice eff, medium bodied. Pretty sweet, none of the spicy bite I’d hope for from either a lager or a marzen. Sub par.

Poured a clear copper amber color with light carbonation bubbles in the glass. There was a thin light tan head. There was a lightly sweet caramel malt aroma. The flavor was also on the mild side, a bit of a sweet caramel taste with a slightly dry finish like an English ale.

Bottle. Very flat beer and honestly a big disappointing as Lancaster typically produces some good beers. Spare head and amber color with hints of grain and hay. Had a touch of leaves and some strong raisin and maple syrup. Flat taste with light body.

Draft at Lancaster Brewing. A light amber color with minimal white head. A little sweet aroma, with a little citrus and malt. Flavor was crisp and balanced with a slight hop finish.
