Skyview (4007), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA Nov 8, 2009 Received 12-oz bottle via trade with kmweaver. Pours a clear light copper amber brew with a fast dissipating off-white head that leaves behind a thin ring and film top. Aroma of caramel malt, some roasted nuts, toffee, brown sugar, and a touch of sugar. Taste is medium bodied, with very light carbonation with flavors of caramel malt, some dark pitted fruits and some toffee. Finish is semi-sweet, malty with a touch of caramel malt aftertaste and some roasted nuts. fistfull (22), USA Nov 3, 2009 A fairly decent example of a Marzen; light in color, easy to drink with a slight malty pleasantness. Not to be contemplated at great length. Still, a decent, drinkable brew! bigguns22 (88), Maryland, USA Oct 31, 2009 Pours thin,lite amber with with small white head.not much to the noise a little boring.Nice lite beer with with caramel and toffee flavors . nickd717 (1276), Palo Alto, California, USA Oct 27, 2009 Bottle via trade from ben4321 - thanks, Ben! Pours a clear bright copper color with a nice creamy white head and some lacing. Aroma is somewhat sweet Munich malt, bread, and light fruits. Flavor is bready and caramelly Munich malt, sugar, fruity notes, and a little hop bite. Palate is medium-light and very crisp. Overall not a bad example of the style. Dogbrick (2816), Columbus, Ohio, USA Oct 18, 2009 Sample at the Texas Beer & Brats tasting 10/11/2009. The beer is a clear pale orange color with a medium thin and foamy off-white head that dissipates steadily. Spotty lacing on the glass. Mild malt and hops in the nose. Light body with flavors of pale malt, spices and hops. The finish is short with a toasted malt aftertaste. Average overall. jeff789 (359), Pennsylvania, USA Oct 15, 2009 Very traditional, mildly sweet, malty malty.... clear amber... no head... Sweet, a bit heavy on the mouthfeel... This would be tough to drink in quantity... Slightly grassy hoppy, a bit dry in the finish.... Smooth lager up front a bit dry hoppy in the finish, nice beer, but a bit too heavy in the mouthfeel hopdog (5534), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 11, 2009 On tap at the KSBF ’09. Poured a medium amberish color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of caramel, some nuts, citrus, and malty. Tastes of caramel, some fruitiness, nutty, and lighter citrus. hotstuff (3175), Indiana, USA Oct 11, 2009 Bottle. Small fizzy off-white head with poor retention, transparent gold body, fair amount of lacing, and very fizzy, fast-rising carbonation. The aroma was caramel, fruity, crisp, and lightly hoppy. Ditto for the flavor along with some sweetness. Tingly mouthfeel and medium bodied. Easy to drink, but the taste was nothing to get very excited about.
