At a tasting, thanks zvikar, small bubbley head, clear light bronze colour, light honey malty aroma with a touch of hay, strong dominant honey flavour with a light unpleasant bitterness and an unpleasant sour bitter aftertaste. Just bland and boring..

Bottle sample at a tasting at Beer Market Jaffa. Thanks zvikar. As Wolters Fest-Bier. Clear golden. Aroma of malt, cardboard, a bit of caramel and vegetal notes. Sweetish flavor with malt, a bit of cardboard and a slightly drier and bitter finish, a bit vegetal. Light-bodied.

Big Top Beverage Mart, Roslyn case ($20ish): Pours golden with a white head. Aroma is light, mediocre German hops, bready maltiness, some grain. Taste is much the same. Slightly hoppy. Not remotely close to the level of maltiness you get in American marzens. Not bad.

Herber, leicht würziger Antrunk. Leichte Hopfennoten, die Würzigkeit nimmt ab. Trinkbares Märzen. 10/8/8/8/9/8

Bottle from Half Time as Wolters Fest-Bier. Pours a light golden-amber with a slight creamy/bubbly white head. It has an excellent spicy/grassy nose. Must be the hop extract! Near med body. Flavor is rather light caramel with a lot of noble hop bitter. It’s light compared to darker beers, but it’s really good. Except for a bit too much sugar I’d put it up against better pilsners. Based on hop intensity. Green bottle but no skunk.

Bottle @ home. Clear, dark golden appearance with a white head. Toasty, caramel malty lager, mildly nutty aroma. Somewhat bitter, grassy, straw, hay, toasty caramel malty flavor. Not all that good.

Green 11.2 oz bottle, purchased @ Julio’s Liquors for $1.55 with Wild Six discount. Almost clear yellow, light carbonation. Very thin white head. No lace. Light skunky nose. Taste is light Euro hops, mild malt and skunk. Thin watery body. Tastes like a watered down Heineken, I wouldn’t ever drink this again.

33cl bottle. Pours golden-orange colour with not much head. The nose has notes of fine malts with just a hint of caramel, but no more than a hint. The taste has very pronouced hops from the beginning to the end - there seems to be notes of lemon intermingling notes of malt and caramel. The palate is unusual for a lager - there’s more texture and structure but not so much refreshment. Overall, I like it, though it’s not what I expected!

11.2oz bottle. Filtered, pale, orange-tan color. No real head to speak of. A really cheap, thin, boring Oktoberfest. Think stale stateside Lowenbrau. Medium bodied, some slight pungent yeast tones, mellow peppery hop balance Drinkable at time, but still has a skunky, metallic, factory thing goin on. Unimpressive.

Yez, I was lucky enough to get a bottle of this from house of 1000 beers. You know, the slight aroma of skunk in some beers is not all that bad! Big and small CO2 in the pale lager show, filtered fer sure. Yeah, rather strong for lager and some of that piercing aroma carries thru to the taste. Metallic aroma follows with a wierd sensation of sterile palate. Fienwerzig baby! Mit mildren hofnaharoma. Du Haust, were living in amerika! One of the more mild fest beers I’ve had and I’m liking that. Jeet yet?
