Pours brown with a tan head. Smells caramelly and earthy. Tastes caramelly with a peaty finish.

long neck bottle (330ml). -Nice clear amber coloured, medium sized white head, dry honey caramel nose. Toasted malt, grainy and quite dry herbal taste with chestnut and almond notes in the finish. Wrong style maybe, closer to Vienna.

8/5/8/4/16 A bottle from Julius Meinl in Vienna, 2006. Nice amber color—not usually seen in Austria. Medium head that fades rather quickly. Malt aroma, hops as well.. Dry malt flavor, slightly roasted tasting, good hops as well as a bit of fruit, prunes or raisins. Malt finish with hops and a long-lasting bitter finish. Dry, nutty. Very nice beer with full flavor, almost no sweetness.

[bottle at the brewery] Pours an almost amber/yellow color. Malty, hop aroma. Flavors are clean, caramel malts with a solid dose of noble hops. Interesting mineral-y finish. Dry and grassy.

draught pint @ biergasthof schiffner. Malty, frsh bread, aroma. The colour is a bit of a guess since the beer came in a beautiful long stein, but a dark amber is probably it. Very quaffable indeed. Round with mineral notes. Highly recommend it.

330ml bottle from Meinl am Graben, downtown Vienna. Clear brown body with a fragile head. Malty aroma. The flavour has got shades of caramel sweetness and minerals added by a touch of hoppy fruits. Alright for a pale lager (04.12.2007).

Dark golden color with a small head. Hoppy citrus taste - some grassy tones too. Long lasting - nice one!

Draught. Called a Märzen by the person pouring it. Weak citric aroma, a bit sweet. Nice, clear, dark amber colour. Stable creamy head. Fizzy and bubbly, but nice-looking. Mild flavour, quite malty, low bitterness. Aftertaste is slightly sweet. Flavourful for a lager, and quite nice.
