22 oz bottle. Pours a pretty deep brown amber color. Head is pretty thick. Overall the beer is extremely sweet in both aroma and flavor. It ends up being a great desert beer that I find to be one of the best Fall seasonals I’ve had this year.

Bouquet of cherry, apple, hops, and subdued malt. Red amber color, clear, with a relatively thick tan head. Tastes of wood and berries, a bit of barley. Excellent hop finish. Everything goes together very well. Awesome!

Bottle at London Gathering Nov 2005. Copper colour with sediment in suspension, beige lasting head. Exploded on opening. Bit nasty on nose. OK in mouth with yeasty funkiness on end. Have given default score as not sure it was supposed to be like this. Original score of 1.4

Bottle: Poured a light brown color lager with a nice big white bubbly head with minimal retention. Aroma of crisp hops with some sweet malt. Taste is dominated at first with sweet caramel malt and finish with a medium bitterness. Very nice and refreshing from a style that I don’t seem to drink much of.

Clear amber/copper coloured body with a crimson hue and a thinnish light tan coloured head that lasts long. Aroma of mushrooms, caramel, toffee, raisins and must-wierd, but nice. Light to Medium-bodied; Spicey hops hit up front with a good malty backbone and a suble spice and a good toffee flavour that lasts for a long time. Aftertaste shows the bittering hops and some of the lighter spices. Overall, a nice beer to try, definitely better than some other marzens and beers from Legend. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased today, 31-December-2004 at Norm’s in Vienna, Virginia.
