Oct 24, 2008 Pours red-copper with a good sized light beige head that lasts a long time and leaves decent lacing. Aroma is lots of caramel, toasty, sweet and grainy malts. Hops are present but merely provide a grassy, leafy backdrop to the spectacular malt nose. Flavor is basically a repeat of the nose, with the addition of some nice toffee, buttery and nutty malt notes takeing over quite a bit for the grassy hops. Finish is a pleasant continuation off the toffee, and grain malts, with some leafy and a tiny bit of bitter hops. Body is medium, a little sticky, and a little over carbonated. Overall pretty good, probably one of the best marzens or oktoberfests, including viennas, that I have had.

Oct 23, 2008 Draught at Mallaskukko. Copper, firm white head. Toasty, sweet malty aroma, dried fruits and grassy hops. Caramel malty, toasty flavor, buttery nuttiness and herbal hops in the finish. A bit over carbonated palate. Nicely chewy märzen, just a hint more hops and it’s there.

Oct 22, 2008 Floral hoppy aroma, sweet malty, dry and bitter taste. Mouthfeel is soft. Most impressive example of the style so far for me, this is really good and now I get the idea of one liter pints...

Oct 20, 2008 on tap@gingerman in norwalk. Typical ofthis style, redish-amber body with a fast fading whte head. Caramel malt aroma. Flavor was mostly sweet malt notes. A truly unique palate were the beer seemed thin, but seemed overall heavy on the stomach. Areally crisp finish.
