UPDATED: SEP 20, 2019 Pours clear, dark amber with a three finger, off white head. Aroma is caramel and light Munich hops. Taste is caramel, moving to roast and Munich hops. Finish is hoppy.

UPDATED: AUG 24, 2019 Pours dark amber with a thick white head. Aroma of sweetened malt. Hoppy and slightly resinous malt body. Palate has malty and hoppy elements, typical of the style. Good.

UPDATED: JUL 15, 2019 Pours a hazy amber color with a thin tan head. A little hoppy with some caramel flavor. Not too bad, but there are better Octoberfest beers!!!!

I poured it from the bottle into a dimpled mug. It pours a dark amber with a fluffy, off-white head and lacing. The aroma is earthy, caramel, and biscuit. The taste is caramel, biscuit, honey, and tea. It's smooth. There's a subtle sweetness and an earthy bitterness. This is an above average version of this style.

Tried a few different Oktoberfests this season, and although this didn't stand up to my favorite (Samuel Adams)...it was solid for what it is. The balance isn't quite there, as the background is the lagery Harpoon beer which is nothing special to me. But, there are some nice caramel flavors and spice in there. Also has a slight creamy texture to the mouthfeel. A slightly above average brew.

12 oz. bottle from hayduke that we had together via facebook chat. Clear and coppery with some being head. Nice lacing falls down the glass. Aroma is malty and a bit earthy. Flavor is floral with gentle fruit. Caramel malts. No Fall spices noted. A bit of soap and zest. Pretty good for what it is.

Shared with Strykzone on Facebook Chat. Poured red copper with a beige head. Nose of caramel malts. Medium body. Flavor is very malty with no sign off hops Finishes almost sweet. Drinks OK however and is a decent enough beer

UPDATED: DEC 29, 2017 Klar lys brun med lavt hvitt skum. Lukter honningmelon, mango og lett tigerbalsam. Middels fylde. Smaker også melon, søtlig og noe pepperig ingefær.

12oz bottle at home. Clear golden amber with an off-white head. Caramel, bread, pale malt, toffee, biscuit, mild hops. Medium carbonation. Light body with a malty finish. Good marzen.

Pours a clear copper with a frothy white head. Nose is a little caramel and European hops with a touch of clove. Flavor is sweet at first but quickly dissapates to a sticky but bland finish. Very light bodied. Very typical marzen.
