Mar 25, 2009 Cloudy amber pour with a thin white head. Aroma of toasted malt and mild butter. Flavor of toasted malt and mild butter. The body is light with an oily texture and moderate carbonation.

Nov 2, 2008 Had a bomber on Mischief Night, earthy, roasted malts, almost thought it had a smoke flavor, but it was a toasted flavor. Amber color, nice foam top, drinkable Marzen.

Aug 17, 2008 Objectively speaking:
A clean lager that fails to be memorable.
I like:
Agreeable toastiness surrounds the nose. Rather bright effervescence suffers a bit from the butterscotchy oiliness. Gently leafy hop closure.
I dislike:
Not as refreshing as it could be. Rather sweet all around. Not so bright malt flavours extration.

Aug 13, 2008 My Bottom Line:
Toasted malts cover lightly fruity and herbal hops in this dryish and drinkable Oktoberfest.
Further Personal Perceptions:
-A veil of foam tops the hazy deep amber.
-A touch of diacetyl is perceived in the nose, but it doesn’t appear in the flavor profile.
-The hops’ fruitiness is akin to citrus pulp at times.
-The mouthfeel is healthy and the flavor profile clean.
-Hops contribute lackluster bitterness in the finish.

Aug 9, 2006 Bottle from Florian’s Market in Auburn. One of the first bottles of ’06 pours a dark golden amber with a hint of brown. Sweet malt and biscuit nose. Flavors are pretty standard german style, buttery and saltine-like flavors. Bitter aftertaste that as my sister called it "bad". I think it’s an average beer, not one i’d seek out again, but it’s still not horrid either.

Jan 17, 2006 Updated: Sep 8, 2006Golden yellow body... somewhat sweet smell... A little sour, svery buttery, I’ll agree with the other folks who’ve rated this, but I guess that’s not so bad... I think some diacetyl (sp?) crept into this brew... Not something I’lll get often, but not bad overall....
