Cloudy with normal carbonation. Tastes fabulous, light and sweet with a strong bready, woody, yeasty taste. Superb example of what a marzen should be. Easily the best I’ve ever had.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 5, 2008 pours a dark amber colour with a medium tight foamy off white head.
Aroma is rich biscuity malt, grassy hop.
Flavour is pretty strong grassy hop backed up by a toasty biscuity malt body. A sour-ish thin finish.
I was actually expecting a bit more unfortunately. BeerBunker (616), Burbank, Illinois, USA

A little caramel bitterness lingers. Easily drinkable with nothing that really stand out about it. Nothing too spectacular about this beer.
