Commercial Description:
The Martian Marzen Lager falls under the Octoberfest/Marzen style. A wonderful caramel sweetness and aroma best describes this smooth, full-bodied beer. Hallertau hops are used for bittering and flavor. Pilsner, Munich, crystal and chocolate malts are mashed at 154°F. The Martian is fermented with Bavarian lager yeast at 50°F for approximately 21 days.

22 oz. bottle. Clear coppery amber under a smallish off white head. Caramel aroma dominates some grainy and light floral notes. Smooth, medium body and rich mouthfeel, but a little undercarbonated I think. Caramel, brown sugar sweetness is offset by touch of faintly spicy bitterness that prevents it from being sticky. Nice example of the style and very drinkable.

22 oz. bomber. Pours deep bronze with a rocky and uneven beige head. Aroma is sweet and malty - almost a candy like sweetness. Medium / thick body with carbonation that is very sharp and fizzy. The tast starts with a sween nutty malt and a bit of sourness. The finish has some spiciness from the hops and a good bit more of the nutty flavors. Overall I would say this is a very good beer for the style.

Thanks to OhioDad for sending this one. Starts with a huge, rocky tan head that forms easily over a brilliantly clear amber body. Bready malt aroma slightly punctuated by a hint of flowery hops. Light, toasted marshmallow sweetness in the flavor. Light, creamy smooth body. Not an overly assertive example of the style, but a well brewed, cleanly made beer. I’d drink this again.

Nice marzen. Not my favorite, but a solid effort. Some nuttiness, caramel, and hay. Worth a try.

Had one of these while cooking out today. Nice floral nose of grain & caramel, and some spice. Very pleasant. Pours copper with honey amber highlights. The stiff white creamy head has good retention and fair lace with spidery globs. The flavor is very sweet and malty. Some spiciness rounds out the nice finish. The medium to full body is lively and dry. I’ve always been fond of this style. Very well done.

I only tried a sample of this, at the North Market for a quarter. I wasn’t too impressed. Its a little too tangy for a marzen.

Copper/amber body with thin white head. Aroma is soapy, malt, cardboard and maybe honey? Caramel honey flavor. Medium palate.
