Draught at the brewpub. Reddish-brown color with a small, quickly dissipating head that leaves some foam settled around the glass. The aroma was initially quite metallic, but mellowed into a slight caramelized toasty maltiness after awhile. The flavor has some caramel and light tea going on. Pretty clean, just a little sweet, and has a little too much carbonation. Liked the malty flavor, but the hard mineral-metal aspect was a little weird.

Draft. Copper beer with an off-white head. Low malt aroma. Malty, caramel, mineral, grass flavor. Medium body. LIngering caramel and malt.

Solid Marzen, nothing special or unique but good all around. Compares favorably to Oct offerings from major micro players. Second tasting about about a year later. Even better the second time around. LGBrewing has definitely improved.

It was weak for an oktoberfest. Nice red/brown color. Mild sweet malty flavor. Medium bodied. Lacking.
