Nov 26, 2009 copper pour with a small one finger white head. this is not a bad beer but in terms of a marzen it is low in alcohol and malt taste.

Oct 24, 2009 Presentation: This is one of six beers from an eighteen pack labeled Beer of America, Historical Collection. The 18 pack also came with a nice book titled, The History of Beer in America. It was poured from a brown 12oz bottle into a mug. There appears to be no freshness date on the bottle.
Appearance: The body has an amber color with very good clarity and some visible carbonation. On top sits a light fluffy white head that quickly fades to a very thin covering that make some spotty slick lace on the glass.
Smell: Its aroma is very light and there is little to describe. I only noticed a very faint malty sweetness in the nose.
Taste/Palate: There is a light sweet malty grain and husk flavor with some corn or cooked vegetable notes and just a hint of diacetyl. This is balanced by a touch of grassy hops and an odd astringent flavor as well. It finishes dry and clean. The palate has a fairly light body with an average borderline fizzy carbonation.
Notes: This was a rather bland marzen style beer and it had very similar flavors to all the other beers in the mixed pack. The best part of this 18 pack is the book that came with it.

Sep 17, 2009 Bottle pored into a pint glass produced a finger worth of white head that turned to a thin lace. The body of the brew was clear amber with golden highlights.
There was a little bit of grain in the aroma department but not too much else. The flavor was sweet and malty as well with a light sourness to it. Medium bodied with good carbonation for this style.
It is drinkable but again why? There are tons better Marzen’s out there.

May 22, 2009 Has a slight aroma of caramel and malt. No head to speak of, and a copper color. Not much taste to it, maybe a little bit of malt, and that is it. Eh.
