Clear light copper body, with medium white head. Caramel and slightly hoppy aroma. Body is lightly caramel, turns mildly German bitter in the aftertaste. Not much to this one, pretty easy drinking.

Bottle… Crystal clear amber ale with a small, fizzy, white head… gone in a flash. Toffee and caramel aroma with a note of singed sugar. Medium to full-bodied with an almost chewy mouthfeel and medium carbonation. Well-balanced. Nice, malty caramelized flavors. Crisp, lightly sweet finish.

Picked up a bottle figuring I’d give it a try. Pours a slightly hazy gold with a thin white head. Smells of caramel and lightly spicy. Tastes of caramel and lightly spicy. Pretty run of the mill and watery but with a pleasant enough lightly sweet finish.

Only the label identified this as a Marzen for me. Nice orange color with almost no trace of a head. Sweetish aroma, but I couldn’t tell where it was coming from. Nice full body. Not a lot of flavor - some sweet maltiness and trace amounts of hop bitterness. Non-offensive.

Light amber/brown color with a foamy light tan head that dissipates quickly. Mild malt aroma. Mild malt flavors. Slightly harsh bitter finish that leads to a nutty almond aftertaste. A light vienna.

Copper bronze color, pellucid, sticky head, some lacing. The aroma has some dusty malts, not well defined, chaotic. The flavor is moderately sweet with some good malts. Very 1-dimensionaly though to me. Just some caramel malt sweetness is all I get. Finishes sweet, some malt. eh. Thanks Falconseye!
