Attractive amber/brown color, strong carbonation, persistent white head. The aroma is of caramel malts, and bread and biscuits. The flavor is mainly caramel malts. The finish has a nice hop bite near the end, which then hangs in for a while. One of the nicer Marzens out there.

Pours a nice tawny copper with a nice swirling carbonation. Thin light yellow head. The nose is malty and grainy, sweet, nice bitterness. The flavor is malty, crisp, tastes like autumn, malty, grassy hoppy bite. Nice crisp cleansing mouthfeel.

Can.50cl. This beer seemed to lack any real taste. It goes down smooth and doesn’t offend in any way. caramel, pale, clear, a minimal head, light body, thin feel, soft carbonation.

Very faint aroma of carmel. Flavors of sweet fruit and caramel. Very refreshing, and much smoother than other top rated Oktoberfest beers.

Sampled at the JRHB club meeting. Always a nice surprise to be at one of the meetings, sample a beer I know I’ve had many times before, and then discover I’ve never rated it. I think that a lot of this is because with a lot of the "classic" examples, I had them for years prior to finding Ratebeer, but 5 years into it and 1900+ beers later, it is hard to remember some of these old brews. In any case, medium amber, clear, slight head. Aroma was lightly malty with faintly floral hops. Flavor is the same, perhaps lightly grassy. Not bad, not great.

This is by far the most preetty amber color ever with little to no head depending on pour. The beer tastes very non offensive almost salty sweet with brine and peanut taste. A taste of freshly baked breate with almost no taste of the %6 ABV. Taste this as soon as possible. Not the best but still great. The appearance alone is worth the try.

Paulaner Oktoberfest Märzen is a clear amber beer with a large, fluffy, oily, off-white head that leaves nice lacing. It has a pretzely aroma of deep grain that seems almost salty. It is medium bodied, bubbly, dry and crisp. It tastes like pretzels. The flavor is well balanced and there’s a touch of bitterness at the finish. It’s refreshing and very german.
