purduebacchus (39), USA Jun 2, 2008 copper color with a malty nose, strong caramel flavor with a clean finish. carruthm (1110), Seattle, Washington, USA May 31, 2008 Updated: Jul 8, 2008V - remarkably clear dark amber color with little head
A - little bit of vanilla caramel and yeast
T - trace of bitter malt and yeast
P - carbonation, gets silkier as it warms up. Cylong72 (2), Puyallup, Washington, USA does not count May 26, 2008 Good Malt aroma, nice copper color with good head. Strong but smooth taste that made me beg for another. First sampled this at Octoberfest and occasionally find a bar with it as well. Great flavor for a great bear, another one that is good warm as well. Lubiere (4463), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada May 5, 2008 A pale golden lager with a thin white head. Aroma of sweet honey and yeast, clearly oxidized. In mouth, good malt with light german hops, definite signs of oxydation, cloying sweetness and chalky final. Bottle is one year old.

As I recall, this was a classic and tasty marzen. SaintMatty (1197), Tallinn, Estonia May 3, 2008 500ml Bottle- Attractive golden coloured with mild carbonation and a small head. The aroma is malty, yeasty and has a hint of banana and grapefruit. The taste has a pleasant zing and a mild hoppiness with grapefruit featuring again. Not bad for a beer of this type. kappldav123 (1788), Markkleeberg, Germany Apr 28, 2008 The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. Very zippy. Begins strong and spicy. Finish could be stronger. An average festbier! hughie (3016), Bedford, Bedfordshire, England Apr 27, 2008 Gold, small white head. Sweet vegetable malt aroma. I caught tomato initially. Taste has yeast and grainy malt, very restrained and slightly creamy. Slight bitterness. I’m struggling to find bad (or good) things to say about this beer. Tomorrow I will have forgotten it.
