Bottle. Clear amber, thin head. Not much for an aroma, overly malty taste, mild hops. Cheap at the supermarkets and it’s better than bud.

Nov 30, 2009 Had this in Miami. Amber pour. Boring malty and light hops aroma. Flavor is a bit stale, with cereal grain and caramel. Meh.

Nov 30, 2009 Had this on tap in KC and did not care for it at all. aroma was earthy and slightly alcoholy to me. Taste was something i can’t pinpoint but i didn’t enjoy it, kind of bitter i guess. If this is their most popular beer i will not be going back for more!

Nov 22, 2009 On tap in New Orleans. Aroma is a little weak and nutty, medium to heavy sweetness. It won’t blow you away but I like it. Note, I am a little biased towards Oktoberfests, this is a slighty above average beer in my book.

Nov 1, 2009 Bottled in San Jose, CA on: 08/12/09 at 09:52. My, how precise!
Appearance: Pours out a clear, golden-amber body with a modestly-sized, somewhat fizzy, white head.
Smell: Toasty, lightly sweet-smelling nose with slighter notes of light caramel, fruit, and spicy hops.
Taste: Sweetish Pils malts and toasty-tasting Munich malts graciously supplemented with a few extra oven-toasted bread crusts. Very small hint of light caramel sweetness. There’s a vague hint of fruit in the distant background. Proper Noble hops provide a zesty spiciness and a light, complimentary bitterness. Finishes dry, lightly bitter, and fairly crisp.
Mouthfeel: Medium-light body. Medium-plus carbonation.
Drinkability: A decent, acceptable lil’ O-fest with just the right amount of maltiness, hoppiness, and overall drinkability.

Oct 25, 2009 Serving: Draft.
Appearance: Golden orange color with a small, foamy, white head.
Aroma: Mild nose with toasted malt and floral notes.
Flavor: Sweet maltiness with toasted notes and a decent, crisp hop bite.
Palate: Medium carbonation with a medium mouthfeel and a medium-short finish.
Overall: Based on the ratings, I am guessing this one is much better on draft. While it wasn’t anything spectacular, it was a solid Marzen in my mind.
