50 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is bitter and citrusy hoppy. Sweet caramel malt flavoured, light toasted base flavour. Nice bitterness balancing this. Bitter and slight grassy finish.

Bottle, 5.5%. Clear golden colour. Small stable white head. Medium bitterness, slightly rough, but clean.

Golden color, slightly soapy aroma with only hints of hops and mango. Firm bitter, but also malty flavor. Dryish for a märzen. Medium bodied at least. A firm, even a touch alcoholic beer.

(bottle) Clear and pale amber colour with a quite short and foamy almost off-white head. Sweet malty cereal aroma with herbal hops and a fruity tinge. Initially sweet malty, grainy, it finishes rather dry, a bit tart and moderately bitter with a herbal hoppy note. Not bad (for a Schmucker).

Bottle: Sweetish-malty nose with a tinge of honey and cardboard, some umbels floating around in the background; moderate sweetish-bitter flavour, medium bodied; slightly grainy, sweetish finish with a fruity (honey and lemons) tinge. A solid, chewy brew......
