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.

Pours gold/amber with a big white head that fades a bit but a half finger sticks around. Lots o bubbles. Aroma of bread and sweet malt. Taste is the same with a hint of spice. Makes me want to go to Germany during oktoberfest and give this a shot.

On tap at local restaurant. Nice golden color with a sweet malt aroma characteristic of a Marzen. Notes are minimal (don’t take paper/pencil to a restaurant...) but it had a very enjoyable and easy-to-drink flavor...some hops, but mostly malt. Would definitely pick one of these up again

Slightly ruby redish color, very good carbonation. Very malty, and lightly sweet aroma. Dry, mildly bready flavor, good mild bitterness. I agree with the herbal notes others have mentioned as well.

(Teerenpeli, Helsinki). Very good amber looks, almost champagne like bubbles. Toasty and bready, malty and tasty. Some paper and cartboard, but not in a bad way. Dry and tasty, very good.

Pours a subtle cloudy golden amber color with an aggressive head of white. Nice lacing. Aromas are quite pleasing with a toasty grain scent and a firm bready note. Herbal tea hop notes detected. Entertaining biscuit flavors liven up the palate, along with a snap of herbal hop tones. Toasty aftertaste. Clean and dry. Three 500ml bottles were promptly dispatched in a sitting; the drinkability was amazing.

On tap 9/7/07, a little lighter in color than I like in an Oktoberfest, big fluffy white foam. Flavor is good and balanced from what I could get from it, way too carbonated. Damn shame about the carbonation, tonight was about perfect for enjoying a good Oktoberfest on the deck.
