The aroma is light and malty. Flavor is very nicely balanced, smooth, nutty. Light palate. Clean finish. I do not generally like Marzen style that much, but I liked this one.

Light to medium body. Thin, dry, chalky texture. Soft carbonation. Dry malt finish. hopscotch (5549), Vero Beach, Florida, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 25, 2009 Bottle... Crystal clear amber lager with orange highlights and a small, frothy, white head. Good retention. The aroma is a malty, toasty, nutty swirl of caramel, toffee and praline. Disguised, but not completely hidden, is an unfortunate medicinal note. Medium-bodied with a slick mouthfeel and soft carbonation. Pretty well-balanced, but it does lean on the sweet side – as a Märzen should. Caramel and peppery hops. Toasty, sweet finish. roder60 (1033), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Nov 27, 2008 Pours a clear orange color with slight foamy white head. Aroma is very sweet, but plain. Flavor tastes a bit flat and plain, watery, slight malty nutiness. Overall I wasn’t a fan. Way too plain. My friend from Denmark tried it too and said it sucked. cheapdark (2050), Monacatootha, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 1/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Oct 11, 2007 Good clean beery aroma with a slight hint of yeast. Ubiquitous color with a thin tea froth head. Below average carbonation. A mild attack of slight bitterness, typical of the style and a little more bitterness than I expected. Has some background hints of hay. Typical fest flavors and the finish leaves you with a medium lingering industrial bitter palate.
