COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Seductively smooth, this medium-bodied amber beauty is akin to the great Oktoberfest beers of Munich. All German hops make this lager true to style. Patient cold aging makes it wonderfully smooth. In bottles September through February

tennessejed420 (838) - Denver, Colorado, USA - DEC 3, 2010
bottle. Pours a nice auburn copper color with small off white head. Malty aroma, caramel, wet leaves. Medium bodied, smooth, crisp, refreshing. There is a earthy, paper / leaf like aspect to the palate, nuts. Some warm caramel tones and a starchy, very slightly bitter, almost nutty finish. Pretty quaffable as a good marzen should be, nothing outstanding but a pretty solid session.

Amber. Light bodied. Aroma is grain and an almost fruity lager yeast. Flavor is very light and smooth malt presence with more of the light fruit lager flavor.

12oz bottle in a shaker. Pours copper with a cream-colored head. Aroma of toast, nuts, and a little bit of hops. Flavor about the same. A pretty standard Oktoberfest beer.
