Nov 10, 2009 Bottle. It’s amber with almost no head. The aroma is subtle but well layered with plenty of malt, biscuit, caramel, light woody hops, molasses and a hint of black licorice. The mouthfeel is chewy and light to medium in body. The flavour is mild with caramel, brown bread; it’s a bit on the watery side. It finishes with light, mildly bitter hops.

Nov 1, 2009 Deep amber pour. Thin head. The nose is sweet and loaded with caramel and toffee. Why do I keep buying American-brewed Octoberfests expecting them to taste like real ones?

Oct 29, 2009 Poured from bottle into tall glass.
Copper-amber with bubbly head that recedes without hardly any lacing.
Aroma of dark fruit, metal, slight caramel, and only a touch of toast or biscuit. Somewhat different smell for a Marzen.
Caramel and dark fruit malts, with just a little toast in the background. Slight spicy hop counterbalance at the end. Little bit of a funny aftertaste.
Moderate carbonation, medium body, just barely dry (I prefer drier for the style).
Nice, flavorful, and easy to drink. It is certainly a German lager, but I am not sure it is a Marzen, almost more like a lower bitterness Vienna or a lower abv Bock. I am not too much of a stickler for style, so I like it.
