Nov 12, 2007 After all the great things I have heard about this drink I was really dissapointed. Lightly spiced biscuit malt with muted nuttiness and a mildly sweet character. Very boring and plain.

Nov 7, 2007 Bottle courtesy of Larry Pitonka / 5000. Pour was typical for the style, nice initial head and lacing. The aroma was grass, caramel, and some off aroma. The flavor was better than the aroma, nothing off about it, grass featured much moreso than in others of this style, caramel. No great spiced nuances, this one taking a semi-pilsner route with the base beer. Mouthfeel was average body, carbonated. Thanks, Andre!

Nov 5, 2007 Copper beer , nice sized, frothy light tan head.
Very soft toffeeish malt nose, almost English like, fudge like.
Taste toffee, green apple peel,slightly floral, small hopping at end.
Ok on the palte, easy enough to drink.
I found this a nice easy to drink beer, but for some reason i thought this was an ale not a lager..oh well it is still OK.

Oct 16, 2007 Bomber courtesy of 5000. Pours copper with a small white head. Smells of roses, caramel and very ESB like. Tastes of caramel, earth, roses, some bitter malt. Lots of tea and roses in this one. Overall, not very representative of the category.

Oct 15, 2007 Great aroma of fresh chestnuts and milk caramel. bottle poured a solid 2 inch head over clear nut-brown. malty sweetness stays even and soft throughout. creamy finish reminds me more of an ale.

Oct 13, 2007 22 oz bottle from bottletrek.com. Pours a deep copper with a small wispy head. Mild German hop nose and sweet caramel. Sweet rich maltiness flavor, subtle fruitiness, with a smooth mouthfeel. Very easy drinking, very nice Marzen.

Oct 8, 2007 Hazy amber, fast fading beige head. Light carmel malt nose. Light sweet malt profile with an odd bitter hop finish.
Both the haziness and the bitterness are undersirable for this style...in short...not a good example. Also lacks carbonation
