3.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
A nice drinking o’fest that is a bit too chewy and under attenuated. Very drinkable and recommended, but not at the 9.99/six I paid at the local liquor store.

Smooth, malty with a bit of sweetness and a bready, earthy quality. Finish tapers off with a hint of hops. Nicely balanced.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pleasant aroma, good color, feels moderate carbonation on the palette, drank from 12 fl oz glass bottle

3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Tasted of soap to me but otherwise a bit of a malt fest as would be expected. Hard to get excited about this one
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Clear copper color with no head. Aroma of caramel, nuts, and toasted malt. Rich caramel flavor with nuts and toasted malt. Really nice beer for the style.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
From bottle. Pours amber-orange with no head. Rich malt aroma. Taste is malt perfection, very rich, caramel and toffee. Sweet on the palate. Could do with a head on this. Excellent marzen though
2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
355ml bottle. Pours dark orange with a small head. Aroma is caramel, slightly burnt with a touch of apple. Taste has some toffee to start. Short finish with some apple.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle from Stirchley Wines, Birmingham. Amber colour, fizzing, departing head. Sweet, barley sugar aroma. Very pleasant - balanced dryness and sugar hover on the tongue. Short finish, but tight and refreshing.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Location: 12 oz bottle from Colonial Wine and Spirits, 9/20/11
Aroma: The nose is caramel malts, some roast, nutty notes, and a little bit of earth
Appearance: The pour is a clear caramel color with bubbly white head and drops of lace
Flavor: The taste is malty like the nose, rich caramel malts and some light-medium sweetness
Palate: The body is medium, with an average carbonation, a decent mouthfeel, and a slightly dry finish
Overall Impression:
This is another solidly made German-style lager from these guys. The ones I’ve tried thus far haven’t been overwhelmingly good, but they have been both true to style and well made. This one fits that bill as well.
