Pours a nice dark orange to brown with a large light tan head. Aroma is malt, caramel, rye, hops, pineapple. Flavor is rye, caramel, hops, caramel. Finish is bitter hops and rye with a touch of malt sweetness. Interesting Marzen. Not too shabby.

Jan 25, 2009 16oz can thanks to stopbarking, nice. Dark orange-brown, good head and lacing, looks nice. The smell is really cool, rye, hops, fruit. The taste is fruity and pretty good as well and I don’t know what style this is. I don’t think I’ve had an average surly beer yet, all good.

Jan 18, 2009 Can from Chad, thanks. Marzens are by no means near my favorite style, and typically I do not like them at all. This one was a slight exception to the rule. Pours an orange color without much of a head. Smell is malty and fruity, with a huge dose of fresh smelling hops. The smell I think is what makes this beer seem better than it may be. The taste is ok, easy to drink, kind of rich with a big hefty malt backbone to it. There is some fresh hops built into the taste which enhances the flavor. Good stuff here.

Jan 17, 2009 quite possibly one of the best marzens i have had. pours out a orange color with a smaller white head. aroma was sweet with a nice amount of malt to it. flavor was that of your typical marzen, but just seemed to taste better.

Jan 7, 2009 16 oz Can. Pungent rye caramel nose, with some grassy hop character, and that delightful Surly yeast character I think adds to the beer. Pours a clear golden-amber, hazed a little, and rimmed in a white scarf. Flavor is a little milder than I expected. There’s a kiss of rye-flavored honey, some deeper Munich malts, a fairly quiet yeast flourish, and some tart, sweet hop sugars. This is good, but it’s a little bland, even for an Octoberfest for me. I want some of those signature Munich malt notes and a little more robustness in the corners. I want some whole grains and some alcohol. Drinkable, yes. Destination, no. Thanks Sean!

Jan 7, 2009 16oz can fron faro99, thanks Jeff. Dark amber pour. Very nice aroma, caramel, some nuttiness as well. Flavor is much the same, very good octoberfest and I’m not big fan of the style.

Jan 6, 2009 16 ounce can courtesy of cdumler. Pours a brownish orange color with a medium head. Average head retention and lacing. The aroma is metallic at first and gives way to toasted malts and broccoli. Taste is bitter hops, rye and steamed green vegetables. Medium bodied. Seems something may be off here.
