It had a dark golden body with a very malty nose. The flavor had a nice bitter finish.

Light copper, head disappearing quickly. Smells mainly of malts & molasses. Rich malty flavor, not too sweet, but thicker than most. Hops slowly, but surely dissipate the malts. Good drinking. Smooth.

I truly enjoyed this beer. Great color, very nice malty nose and wonderful caramel/toffee malt taste. All I need is a bratwurst.

Beautiful deep amber with a golden-kissed head that displays excellent retention. Rich butterscotch malt aroma, a little earthy (dry leaves?). Very smooth and dense toffee malt palate, full flavoured, sweet but not sickly, with a touch of earthy Fugglesish hoppiness in the finish. Absolutely delicious!

Red. Beery aroma. Bitter dirty initial taste taht assaults the taste buds in a bad way. Tastes like aftertaste but doesn’t have an aftertaste.

Clear dark golden color, large foamy white head and small bubbles slowing rising to the top of a good looking beer. Deep malty aroma compliments the appearance, the slightest bit of hops sneaks into the aroma at the end. A real medium level palate not very carbonated though. The flavor is like the scent, heavily malted with a sprinkling of hops. It might not be the most exciting style of beer but like the fellas in the beer tents in Munich, you can drink alot of it. Leading this beer to the finest represantation of an octoberfest - and why not, its made exactly where the festival started.

dark amber on the pour with no head and smells mostly of malts with a tiny bit of hops in the background. very smooth malt aftertaste but not much too brag about.

On tap and served in a tall Spaten glass. This beer poured a dark amber with a lasting tan head. Some light lacing was left around the glass. The aroma was made up of toasted caramel malt, bready yeast esthers, and also some light noble hops. The flavor stayed true to the aroma. Your typical marzen. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied with a healthy amount of carbonation. Just your run of the mill Oktoberfest.
