Pours clear amber, with a one-finger beige head, very fine, lasting lacing. Smells of carmael, apple, banana, grass, and a little earthy. Light-body, creamy, crisp and lightly dry. Tastes of caramel, biscuit, apple, spice, and citrus. Very well balanced and drinkable.

White grape, plum, apples and caramel round out the aroma. Appearance is light red with a little lacing in the glass. Flavor has some ripe apple, bread, caramel and sour grape. Palate is fizzy. Good, but not too outstanding.

Bottle from jessup plaza. thanks chuck. Poured a nice amber color with a big off white head that lasted a long time. Aroma is sweet malt and some caramel. Taste is nice and big. Lots of malt sweetness and mild hops at the end. Pretty good marzen.

Bottle. Moderate malt aromas of roasted, and bisquit, light herbs for the hops, light yeast notes of leather and earth, with backround notes of butter, honey, and faint spice. Head is large, frothy, slightly off-white, with fair lacing and is mostly lasting. Color is clear orange/tan. Flavor starts lightly sweet and acidic then finishes lightly acidic and bitter. Palate is medium, watery with a lively carbonation and finishes lightly metallic. This was a tough beer not to down in a few gulps. Great tasting and easy drinking.

Bottle as shown. Pours a copper golden with a large frothy white head taht lasts awhile. The aroma is a wheat malt with grain and caramel. Good sticky lacing on the glass. Thin mouthfeel with a sour taste and a sweet finish. Easy to drink, a decent marzen from Ayinger.
