Nov 16, 2009 This is my first foray into marzen and it’s a winner! Orange/brown colour with a generous frothy head. Aroma is wood, malt and spice. Taste is really well balanced. Flavours of hop, wood and spice tickle the palate. I was pleasantly surprised by this beer and will definitely be looking forward to this seasonal every year!

Nov 2, 2009 Volo Cask Days 2009. Dark amber pour, odd tart aroma, with some woodiness and biscuity malt. The wood cask really added a subtle woodiness. Flavor was good and hoppy, with a good malt back bone. Interesting take on the style.

Apr 18, 2009 Cask sample at Volo Cask Days 2008. Slightly hazy golden-red colour. Aroma is odd, with a tart fruitiness not expected from the style, but not unpleasant. Flavour is also oddly spicy and fruity with a fairly hoppy finish. I didn’t hate it, but I didn’t quite get it either.

Dec 11, 2008 A golden amber marzen with a thick lacing white head. A caramel malt aroma, with light vegetable notes, a bit of mashed beans, and sweet fruity esters in finale. In mouth, a nice crisp malt with light berry and grape notes, nutty finales, and hops coming as beer warms up. A good beer. Medium bodied. On tap at Wellington Gastropub, Dec. 11 2008.
