Sold in the US as Oktober Fest-Märzen. This is the filtered version of Ayinger Kirtabier.

Ayinger Festmärzen has a deep golden colour tinted with amber. It is lightly sweet with a malty nose balanced with floral hops. Its medium to big body and alcohol is not overpowering. The soft dryness comes from long maturation.

Clear amber pour with a fluffy (and stable) white head. Aromoas of malt, bread, marmalade, a hint of citrus. Taste is is quite similar, some herbal notes for a decent bitter finish. Not bad.

Bottle from the Lidl bumper bundle. Good pour, good colour and a fairly insipid taste and mouthfeel. Drinkable but there are many better.

Uit het Lidl Beierse Festbier pakket. Mooie heldere oranje kleur met een standvastige ,hobbelige bijna witte kraag. Geur van mout, brood, zoetig, iets rood fruit. Retronasaal is het zoetig, fruitig, tikje kruidig. Smaak is moutzoetig, niet al te zoet gelukkig. Redelijk vol mondgevoel en prima koolzuur. Licht bittertje in de afdronk. Klokt lekker weg.

Bottle pours dark amber with thin white head. Aroma of yeast, dense mouthfeel, malty and slightly sweet. Flavors of bread and yeast linger. Very Nice!
