Oct 16, 2005 Sample at the Chicago location. Quite clear gold-copper, little head retention, touch of lace...very sweet, malty nose, honey mostly with little robust roasty/smoky character...flavor much more interesting, though sweet and syrupy dominates the mouthfeel, a bit of acerbic character comes in later, charred would and light dry herbal hops. OK.

tan/amber color rocky white head well laced. Smell is light weak hop and some toffee. Palate is smooth and well coated. Flavor has a touch of smoke to it and a toffee malt and a pice of wheat. I don’t like it

Oct 1, 2005 Chicago location. The beer is a glowing amber body with a thin white head. The aroma is almost non-existent. The flavor is nicely marzen. Sweet Vienna malts, caramel, touch of starchy fruits like plantains. I’m not a "fest" fan, but this is good. The palate has some carbonation/effervescent qualities.
