Deep copper and bronze coloured body with a nice thinnish off-white head, that only covers the top and barely a centimetre in height. Aroma of very toffee-y and sticky sugars with some caramelised notes and a good dash of stone fruits, but the crisp grainy malts seem to dominate and allow in some moderate nuttiness, in the nose, at least. Medium-bodied; Pretty crisp grainy and malty notes dominate with some light nuts and earthiness, with a rustic bitterness, seemingly from the hops, which are on the lighter side, but do show through towards the end. Aftertaste shows a good blend of malt and hops, with a nice sweetness and slight nuttiness at the finish, but the crisp stone fruits and even light touch of grapefruit does finish this off nicely, with a distinct bready component, as well. Overall, a nice and robust, fairly easy-drinking Marzen, that shows a lot of enjoyable and earthy malts, with a crisp dose of hops and good sugars throughout - good to sample for the season, and the can front makes it that much better! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Beer Baron in Livonia, Michigan on 22-October-2022 for US$10,99/four pack, sampled in my hotel room here in Newport News, Virginia on 18-November-2022.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a clear copper with a light beige head that lingers. Lovely toasted malt, honey and caramel aromas with light peppery hop notes. Dry on the palate with more toasted malt, biscuit and light grassy, peppery hops. Really nice stuff from Brew Detroit.
