| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 1, 2006 Bottle sampled with Stegosaurus. Pours hazy amber with an off-white head. Aroma of fruit and caramel. The flavor is sweet, caramel, and fruit. Good beer. Trooper11 (467), Suffolk, Virginia, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Oct 23, 2006 Bottle date 090606. Amber brew with lots of carbonation on side of glass, small foamy head. Aroma is very malty sweet cherries and pear. Fresh fruit. Smooth fruity taste with a pepper burn feel in the throat. Flavor is a bit more hoppy then I thought it was going to be based on the big malt aroma. Finishes with a gentle warmth. Taste more like a dry fruit wine, then a beer.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 13, 2006 Bright amber with absolutely no head whatsoever. Aroma is very toasty up front, fades into caramel and floral/euro hops. Flavor much the same. Toasty with a very pronounced fruity flavor I can’t pinpoint. Almost is rotten banana weizen like? Decent hop presence helps the beer finish somewhat clean. Getting huge floral belches right now though. Overall decent ’fest. themadmumis (344), Westminster, Maryland, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Oct 7, 2006 On Tap at the Green Leafe... don’t know if the bartender poured the right brew, because what I received was most like an IPA, very similar to Victory’s HopDevil. Now, there’s nothing wrong with the Devil, however, it is definately not what my palate was expecting at that time... I will have to re-rate... Prometheus (97), Fayetteville, North Carolina, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Oct 3, 2006 Amber body. Pumpkin, wheat aroma. Light spice, overall an excellent, if not unoffensive Octoberfest. BrockLanders (750), Panama City, Florida, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 27, 2006 Had this at the Dominion brewpub yesterday. Nice amber color, thin head. Aroma included caramel and nutmeg. Good taste, malty with some other flavors - bready, a touch of fruitiness -- could be a tad more bold, but this is one of the best Marzens I’ve had in a while.
