12oz bottle. pours a cloudy auburn color with a redwood accent.. Smells nutty almost piney... Very good initial hit to the palate with subtle peaks of lower level nutty malts and a very light ending. The original bite ends quickly with nothing heavy on the back end. Would like more of a finish but it is smooth and very enjoyably refreshing. stamp approval.

pours an amber that is almost orange, large white head, lively carbonation, good lacing.
smell is sweet, caramel, malts, just a touch of nuts.
taste is flat, dull, not much there, oily, some malts, caramel, somewhat metallic, slightly bitter in the end.

A dark gold draft, clear and beautiful. It was stronger than I expected in a Marzen; husky malt flavor, well balanced with a nut-like finish.

A solid Oktoberfest/Marzen. Aroma was decently strong. Malt and caramel. Pour was beautiful. Dark ruby with a 2 finger off white head. Taste was good...much caramelly malt with just a hint of nuts(?). Good carbonation and a wet sweet aftertaste round it out.

Gordon Bierch specializes in Lagers, and this is one of their better ones. It should be their flagship IMHO. Bubblegum beer.

LAX Airport at Redondo Beach Brewing Co. Amber colored lager that has the nose of balanced sweet malts and a mild spice. Very nice malt flavors with some good hop flavors as well. Easy to drink and darn good.
