Delicious. I’m a huge Marzen fan, so I was looking forward to trying a highly rated, German-brewed one. Victory’s Festbier’s been my go to local beer, but Ayinger’s truly does belong to a higher class. The aroma is far more powerful, full of all of the sweet, toffee and caramel notes that I’d expect. It’s perfectly balanced, smooth and finishes crisp. If I was at Oktoberfest, I imagine I’d have about six too many of these. Superb.

Pours a nice clear amber with a medium white head, and laces nicely down till the end. The aroma was not straight-forward but i did catch glimpses of citrus towards the end. Overall, a very nice beer actually one of my favorites so far.

I liked this stuff!!! Poured a deep amber color with excellent head retention. Aroma of light sweet malt, spices, and floral notes. Flavor was medium sweet malt flavor with obvious caramel character. medium mouth feel. Great beer!

500ml bottle: Pours a pale amber color, just slightly darker than a macro lager. Frothy off-white head. Aroma consists of sweet malt, toffee and some spice. Initial taste is of soft malts and toasted almond. Just when you get the slightest hint of hops it finishes with a sweet, lingering caramel finsh. Softly carbonated with a refreshing mouth feel. Without a doubt the best Octoberfest I’ve had so far this season.

Bottle. A clear orange/amber color pour with a large fluffy off white head. Nice lacing and lively carbonation. Aroma is of sweet toasted nutty caramel malt,apple,and a hint of spice very pleasent. The flavor blew me away,a huge sweet malty nutty taste,with some hints of bread,peaches and maybe some orange zest. A good creamy mouthfeel. Just a hint of bitter hops at the end. VERY GOOD !

wow, i saw that the rating was really high for this, but i still didnt think it would be this good. usually the highest ratings are for beers that are hard to get. one of the best marzen’s ive ever had, so well balanced and a great finish.
