Sep 4, 2007 Poured a nice orange/amber color with a decent white foam head. The nose was sweet with nutty malts as well as a light citric hop twang. The taste started with some sweet caramel and nutty notes with a distinct fruitiness throughout. The finish was dry and had a good spicy/citric hop presence. This was a pretty decent autumn beer. It wasn’t exciting in any way, but worth a try.

Sep 2, 2007 Yet another good Spaten product - solid malty flavor comes through with little else around it. Miss a bit of the Bavarian character others have, but still entirely respectable beer.

sweetness fades quite a bit once it reaches room temp but still the rich carmel malt

Aug 30, 2007 On draft at the Saucer. Pours a deep copper with a lasting off-white head. Aroma dominated by lightly kilned malts. Taste is sweet with caramel, balanced by noble German hops with herbal/minty character. Very satisfying.

Aug 30, 2007 Notes of caramel malts and a little nuttiness in the nose. Pours amber in color. Very malt forward with flavors of caramel and a little roast followed by a sweet breadiness. Finishes crisp. A very good oktoberfest bier.

Aug 28, 2007 At first the aroma is a little musty when youi pop the lid on this green bottle. No wonder! The date code is 1397, aged well! Good clean friendly marzen. Nice carbonation. A little darker than the regular pale yellow american lager. Lemony citrus flavors without any hop bitterness or bite. Finish is long but well behaved and agreeable. An almost tasty unique metallic palate for a few minutes. .
