Vintage 50 Oktoberfest Marzen

Serving: Draft at the brewpub. Pours a cloudy copper color with a thick, dark tan head. The nose highlights the malt with a slight toastiness, some nuttiness, and a little vegetal note. The flavor seems almost more brown ale and oktoberfest hybrid. It lacks the crispness and cleanness I usually associate with the style. Lots of malt with a weird nuttiness and a odd vegetal bitterness. Medium bodied. This one doesn’t work too well for me.
