Ayinger Oktober Fest-Märzen

Brewed by Brauerei Aying
Style: Oktoberfest/Märzen
Aying, Germany

500 ml in pint glass. Bright amber with nice off-white head. Caramel and grass aroma. Exceptional smooth mild caramel flavor. Mild pleasant bitter finish. The best Oktoberfest I’ve had by far.

Not a big lager fan and even less of an octoberfest fan but tried this beer because a friend raved about it. And I must say, its pretty good. big foamy head and a dark gold color. A fruity aroma pleasently presents itself. the taste is somewhat like a wheat beer and a dopplebock with a yeasty finish. Agood beer from a great brewery.

500 ML bottle from Cork ’N Bottle. Cloudy orange color, sweet malty aroma, good head retention with minimal lacing, good toasted malt flavor with some complexity and banana and yeasty notes. At first it tastes like an attempt to cross a hefeweizen with a marzen but the fruit-like components of the taste diminish as the glass warms. Nice brew.

Had this beer on 10/15/1998. Color is orange with ok carbonation and head. Aroma is thick and rich. Taste is a lot like most October Fests. Body is medium / heavy and goes down thick. Finish is a sweet malt flavor.

500ml bottle, great Ayinger bottle cap! Clear amber lager, with a large eggshell white head, that its thick and luxuriant. Nice carbonation strings. Great creamy toffee malt aromas, slightly toasty. Malty semi-sweet caramel start, longer semi-bitter finish and a slight hint of hops in the after taste Very nice palate, just rolls over the tongue , but is not in the least boring. But makes for a drinkable brew indeed.

OnTap Hamiltons. Light Amber color. Light caramel with a present roasty malt flavor, Crisp finish and aftertaste that last. Very delicious beer!

Pours an amber color with an off-white head. Aroma is of toasted malts, toffee, caramel, spices, and floral hops. Flavor starts off with the toasted malts, toffee, and caramel. Finishes with a slight bitterness from the floral hops. Has a somewhat decent, long lasting finish. Very good Oktoberfest.

A good overall aroma, but could use some more malt notes. A golden to copper color. Slightly roasted flavor that finishes even and smooth. Great representation of an Oktoberfest/Märzen.
