| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Oct 15, 2007 22 oz bottle. Pours a light amber, very thin off white head that is gone quick. Light aroma, a little caramel and stale fruit. Flavor is bland, starts sweet, ends sour, nothing really stands out flavor wise. No spices noted. Balanced aftertaste is the best part of this beer. Thin body, light carbonation. Drinkable, but not by me again. MikeF (528), Cleveland, Ohio, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 7, 2007 Overall a great marzen. Not a huge fan of the style myself, but well balanced and very drinkable. Certainly better than most "Oktoberfest" brews that crop up every fall. jmikolich (405), Athens, Ohio, USA

Taste is nutty and earthy with some mellow citrussy elements. As the beer warms, some bitterness emerges. Finish is tingly and earthy with a lingering spiciness.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 21, 2007 Bottle from Capone’s. Hazy deep coppery pour with 1-finger off-white head. Aroma of caramel malt, brown sugar, figgy fruit, some sour mashy hints. The flavor was caramel malty with some brown sugar, toffee, and finishing cognacy hints. Decent complexity. ross (1709), weddington, South Carolina, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 20, 2006 Bottle from Matt (drbayern) Thanks! Pours out an amber orange color without much of a head. Smell is full of caramel, sweet flavors, some spices. Smooth and rich, perphaps a little light. Marzens are not my favorite, but this one was actually pretty decent. One of the better ones I have had. I could mistakenly say this beer is from Germany. Well done. Not a diacytel bomb like the IPA was..
