| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 18, 2009 Draft at Naked City. Pours a crystal clear dark amber with bright garnet overtones and a thing disc of tan cream on top that doesn’t really hang around for very long. Not much lace. Nice caramel apple nose--doesn’t smell like acetaldehyde, smells like a nice red apple type of yeast and some doughy malts. Creamyish lightish body--a little thick, but definitely not anything to make an ice cream float with or anything. That caramel apple thing comes back for the mid-palate, not much carb, and a sweet finish. Solid, drinkable, no real flaws. A little on the polite side, a little on the sweet side, but a nice beer.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 12, 2009 On tap at Pike Market Pours out a amber topped with a small head. Aroma of sweet malts and a lttle malt. Tast more of the sweetness maybe some caramel and a nice malt. A touch of bitterness at the end. chumba526 (6), Washington, USA does not count | 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 3, 2009 A nice light but full bodied take on the marzen. It is a good summer marzen- it has the caramel malt taste associated with marzen but has lightness to it. Overall it is not an authentic marzen but it is an innovative take on it that has many of the same features that the authentic marzen has. KnN (744), Greenbelt, Maryland, USA

Poured a nice amber/orange color with an orange head. Aroma was caramel, toffee, some maltiness, a little cloying., Flavor was pretty sweet, kind of flat and a bit boring. Not the best of the style I’ve had. anders37 (4760), Malmö, Sweden
