3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20Pours a golden amber color, with a thin white head. Has the typical maltiness and sweetness of a a Marzen. Smooth, well blended, and quite drinkable. Thumbs up.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 12/20
Amber with white head. Aroma and taste are sweet malt. Bready really. A lettle creamy on the tongue. Good. Not great.

Bottle. One of the best widely available Marzens on the market. Nice and bready.
3.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Paulaner Oktoberfest Märzen is true to style and a solid beer. Faint aroma of slightly sweet malt. Appearance is the expected amber-red with a thin head. Taste is slightly sweet and malt that fades fast on the palate. A decent example of this classic German style from a German brewery that’s been around awhile.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Tap. Bubbly, dark redish amber color. Firm yellowish head crowns the mug. Sweet, malty, yeast, toffee in aroma. Malty, creamy, toffee, mildly grainy notes in flavor. Nice brew.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
330 ml bottle. Pours an amber/copper color and clear with a thick white head that slowly settles. Smells like malts, bread, nuts, and herbs. Medium body, with a slick texture and soft carbonation. Pretty smooth and kind of creamy. Flavor is mostly malty, grains, caramel and biscuits. Light hop bitterness with a clean finish. It was alright.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Aroma of very bready spiced pumpernickel, nuts and toffee. Appearance is amber/copper with slightly sticky bone head. Flavor is sweet, of course, but lends a healthy amount of spicy snappiness; the finish is dry and nutty. Palate is medium, creamy and very soft. A pleasure to drink.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle. Pours a clear amber color with a moderate white head. Nose is awfully malty, much like the taste. It is what it is. Meh.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Nice straw yellow color. Clear with one finger of head that dissipates to a nice top. Smells light and earthy with hints of malt. Taste is somewhat floral or grassy but light also. Malty with a hint of bitterness at the end. Light in mouth with good carbonation. Easy drinking and a nice compromise for any type of beer drinker.

Im Salvator zu Bonn aus dem Faß genossen, ist dieses Märzen geradezu beeindruckend geraten: Kräftig-würzig und malzbetont obendrein, herrlicher Trinkstoff!
Test vom 2.5.2007, Gebinde: Fass Noten: 12,12,13,12,-,12 - 12,15
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
500mL bottle purchased at BevMo in Vacaville. Best by 01/13. The aroma is fairly straight-forward for the style with minerally notes, light metals, a little sweet caramel character, as well as some spicy noble hops. Transparent golden-copper body present with a medium, strong whitish head. Starts almost tart, and a little astringent. Weird. A little sweetness with hints of toffee and nuts come through in the middle. Finishes with a lingering grassy, lighly bitter hoppiness. Pretty good, albeit a different take on what I think of the style.
