pours a hazy brownish - amber-ish - copper with an off white head and moderate spots and drips of foam. it smells... peachy and rather floral with notes of spice, earth, pale caramel and lager yeast. the flavor is unexpectedly clean... the notes of the aroma apply here with a pronounced fruitiness and a spicy prickly finish... crisp and refreshing. the medium body feels light on the tongue but has a great creaminess. i could put a hurtin’ on a case of this! 7/3/7/4/16/3.7

noticed some leafy-ness, spice, orange and grapefruit. clean finish. 7/3/7/4/16/3.7

12 oz bottle (nicely decorated) bottle. Poured a cloudy copper color. Aroma was mostly caramel malt. Flavor was a strong malt up front, abrupt finish. It was okay, not particularly memorable, but I did like the packaging.

Lightly hazed caramel with a medium off-white head. Aroma of malt, perhaps from Munich, fruit, dough and light sweet malt. Taste of mild fruit, nuts, toasted malt and a hint of caramel. Pretty light on the palate and average overall.

Yeasty odor, cloudy pour with some lacing. Amber/ copper color, good carbonation. Pleasant grapefruit notes followed by a medium hoppy finish, but not overly bitter. Decent Dunkel.

Light copper pour with some caramel aroma. Malty and medium caramel in the flavor. Light to medium hop character. Decent brew.

12oz shorty bottle. Red-brown colored, quite murky. Minimal carbonation and head. The taste is sweet and malty with an interesting sour twang in the finish. I like the idea of the Dunkel-Marzen, but this one is a bit off. I’d love to try it fresh, but the lack of effervescence and pungent fruity amber malt aroma kind of make it hard to enjoy as is. OK.

[Bottle] Pours a dark amber color with a small amount of off-white head. Aroma of grains, bread and light caramel. Sweet caramel malts in the taste. Medium to low carbonation and thin palate. Overall pretty one-dimensional and slightly cloying. Not much of a dunkel either...
