Rich with a creamy smoothness, spicy hop midpalate, dry fresh wood finish. TeamTrappist (364), jericho, New York, USA Jul 6, 2009 Tap at The Blind Tiger. Poured a light copper color with a very thin head. Nose was light but mostly malty.Nice lager flavor with a solid malt backbone. A good example of the style fidelis83 (709), Clinton, Iowa, USA Jun 29, 2009 Pours dark amber with a 1 finger eggshell head that fades somewhat quickly to a thin skim and ring. Aroma is sweet malt, toasted grain, a little caramel, some earth and dark fruit. Flavor is lots of fresh grain, some caramel, sweet malt, underbaked cookies and some planty notes. Palate is light bodied a little slick and somewhat overcarbonated for the style. This is a decent marzen. I really like the very fresh wholesum grain taste that it starts out with but it lacks follow through. beerfest5 (128), Simsbury, Connecticut, USA Jun 19, 2009 not a bad oktoberfest, a little to molasses taste for me to be so called "smooth". probably wont do it again, but best i could find at local beer store. yobdoog (1426), Woodridge NY, New York, USA Jun 18, 2009 Updated: Nov 3, 2009Bottle.
