Commercial Description:
Ayinger Oktober Fest Märzen has a deep golden color tinted with amber. It is lightly sweet with a malty nose balanced with floral hops. Its medium to big body and alcohol is not overpowering. The soft dryness comes from long maturation.

Bottle - Light amber pour with a foam head settles down quick. Rather malty sweet this with grain, hops and earthy notes. This was mild and an easy drinker, a bit fizzy and some dryness towards the end but a good Marzen all round! I’m a big fan of Celebrator and Aying seem to put out some nice beers.

Pours a deep golden color with a small lingering white head. Aroma is malty and sweet with some pronounced plum and a light honey character. Flavor starts off with the sweet honey. A grainy bread character comes mid swallow followed by a bit of a bittersweet finish with more honey and some of the fruit character along with the bitter which goes away quickly. Medium body. Nice Oktoberfest but I don’t think I’d necessarily call it the best, since it feels a little too honey like.

nice, refreshing lager with citrus hints. Golden body with little to no head. It’s not too much, but yet flavorful.

Amber with a nice two finger head. Aroma is caramely. Flavor is malty with a hint of hops. Nicely balanced beer. One of the best Octoberfests I’ve had.

This outstanding Marzen beer pours very clear golden color with a little bit of a coporish hue to it. Has a very fleeting off white head with very little to no lacing. The aroma is very malty... I can’t detect any hops yet in the nose. Flavors of caramel lays lingering on my taste buds. Barely a little spiciness from the hops. After a swish in the glass as it warms a little there are hops in the nose, and alcohol. It’s not too effervecent ( as light and fluffy) because of the full bodiness. The second pour in my glass gave me some flowery hops in my nostrels which quikly fades to big maltiness. Very smooth on the palate, with a soft dryness as described from brewer. Absolutely wonderful brew! Thank the Lord for the hop harvest.

on tap. Great tasting beer for the month of October. Wonderful, though I liked the Paulaner better.
