Sep 19, 2006 from the bottle. poured a cloudy golden color with a big off white head. aroma sweet dough, malts,fruity, hops. flavor, 1st impression was yew but after I let the beer sit in my mouth I thought ok this isn’t that bad got some strange sweetness a combo of sugar and fruits followed by tartness. this isn’t like any marzen I have had. It did go down easy. but did not wow me

Nov 12, 2004 Tap: Lighter orange in color. Light spice aroma. Very subtle sweet malt taste. Sour finish. Not a good fest beer. More like a watery lager.

Nov 11, 2004 On tap: Light citrus aroma. Orangish-gold with a small white head. Light malt up front with a moderate sour citrus finish. Not your typical Oktoberfest. Take out the sourness and it would be a watered down Oktoberfest. It’s hard to ignore the sourness though.

Oct 30, 2004 Draft at the Leopold Brothers Brewery. White head, sparse lacing, carbonated, transparent, and a yellow hue. Malty and fruity aroma. Sweet and malty flavor. Smooth mouthfeel. Not impressed for this style of beer.

Oct 18, 2004 This draft brew from the brewery poured a very small sized head of fine to medium sized fully diminished white colored bubbles yet what was left of them lasted a long time. that left behind a poor lacing. The body contained no carbonation, was transparent and light brown yellow in color. Its aroma contained notes of mellow malt and dough. I wanted more scent out of the nose than I got. Its mouth feel is mild initially tingly with a lingering citrusy hoppy aftertaste. Its flavor was off for a Marzen. It was not a good Marzen. It is something else more akin to an ale than a Marzen.
