Headbanger (1574), Aurora, Illinois, USA Sep 13, 2009 12oz bottle 9/13/09 (New Glarus Brewing)-Pours a light amber with a small scattered white covering. Aroma of malt, sweetness, caramel, and candy. Taste of the same with a big amount of maltiness and sweetness. This medium bodied brew is very flavorful and well balanced. I am not a fan of this style but this is pretty tasty stuff. arkurzynski (89), West Bend, Wisconsin, USA Sep 6, 2009 Fruity/sweet aroma. Good malty character with good balance. Almost some estery undertones. One of my favorite Wisconsin Oktoberfests. JoeMcPhee (4893), Jackson Heights, New York, USA Jul 11, 2009 Amber beer with a thin white head. The aroma is loaded with soft maltiness. Lightly swet and toasty with a bit of Munich malt sweetness. Excelent cleanliness with a crisp fresh breadiness. Softly sweet and a little toasty. A touch of light herbal character. Sweet and balanced and fairly toasty. Nice brew. oakbluff (298), Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada Jun 14, 2009 12 ounce- copper orange- excellent clarity. Sticky off white head. Nose- grassy hops, candied fruit. Taste- bready biscuit malts, higher than expected hoping giving a dry finish. Very drinkable. Carbonation level is good. Well crafted brew.

guyinchicago (516), marengo, Illinois, USA Jun 11, 2009 Updated: Sep 26, 200912 oz bottle thanks to JJclark pours a amber and clear with small head aromas of caramel malts and hops flavor is a sweet malted barley and hops also not the best marzen I’ve had but a very worthy brew noompa (130), Chicago, Illinois, USA May 2, 2009 12 oz. bottle (2008) in a lager glass- thanks jbean! Rocky, soap-sud head w/ decent retention leaving some low fungal tops. Clear red-amber color. Fruity malt aroma w/ hints of a delicate, underlying spicy hops. Very clean flavor, malty and w/ a surprisingly pronounced hops profile. True to style and extremely refreshing. Palate seems a little thin initially, ending w/ a Pilsner-ish flourish at the end. JaBier (1130), Capital City, Ohio, USA Apr 29, 2009 12oz bottle. Clear amber pour with a big off-white head. Sweet and malty aroma with some yeast. Caramel malt flavor backed up by some lager yeast. Not bad by any means, but kinda boring. I will say this, it has that drinkability thing that all the kids are going nuts for these days.
