Very easy-drinking marzen, creamy and heavy on the toffee-caramel notes without growing overly sweet. Nutty and pastry-like on the finish, with slight apple esters and the mildest of hop bitterness on the fade. Pretty red-orange hue with a nice white head and modest lacing. Mediocre nose. Surprisingly nice festbier overall.

Orange/amber colour with a dense off-white head. Small maltiness, a bit of spice in the aroma. Medium-bodied; Malt character in the taste and not much else. Aftertate shows a bit of some spiceyness, but that too is fairly subtle. Not a good Marzen...below average for the style. I had this on draught at Big River (owned by Gordon Biercsh) in Chattanooga, Tennesse on 26-September-2003.
