Aug 24, 2007 I was so looking forward to a new Marzen, but, lo and behold, FD screwed this pooch. Way too much hop character that completely drowns out any malty (OUT!) goodness.

Aug 24, 2007 much better than I expected. Pours dark amber with thin white head. not too much lacing, but a little. hops and malts up front. finish’s clean and crisp.

Aug 21, 2007 Okay I’m really into this one. The nose reminds me a little bit of weizen bock, and even though that’s not a good thing, it’s still a good thing. Along with a clove and yeast aroma, there’s some rhubarb, some dried leaves, some faint squash, and some maple wood in the nose that all work really well togethor. Moderately hoppy, a little high for marzen but it still smells really nice. Frothy and crisp, tends towards sweet, but nowhere near cloying, over the middle, and finishes with a charred corn husk and caramel malt and apple flavor, with a nice balance of sweet and bitter. Has some qualities normally found in altbier, which is something I really like. Overall this is one of the better Oktoberfests sampled so far this fall, and that’s a little bit surprising.

Aug 6, 2007 This is a good Marzen. Low hop count, nice thick lager, with a dark orange-red color. Lots of malts.

Jul 20, 2007 Surprisingly decent from a relatively underwhelming brewery. Nicely rich and thick for a lager, good mouthfeel, dominant caramel malt profile, barely discernible hops (as the style dictates). Probably will get again as the season comes round.

Jun 23, 2007 The Dan journal #47. Tasted 10/22/06. 12oz bottle. Filtered with a honey golden hue. Toasty cocoa nose. Medium bodied with a nice cookie flavor. Nice balance between the dry and sweet.
