Draft at the Merrifield location. Poured a clear copper color with a small white head. Aroma was sweet malts, with some light caramel notes. Clean, easy to drink with a touch of grain and grass. Really nicely done.

4-5 oz pour on draft at Sweetwater Tavern Merrifield. Clear golden amber with off-white head. Aromas of malt, caramel. Tastes of malt, caramel, biscuit. Medium body with a dry finish. Solid if you like the style.

Deep amber coloured body with a thinnish off-white head. Aroma of pumpkin pie spice, malt and a bit of spice. Light to Medium-bodied; Lightish spicey flavour with some pumpkin tastes and more malt. Aftertaste has some caramel sweetness and a bit more spice, but nothing outlandish. Overall, a nice marzen beer with some good spices and a bit of a malty kick - even stronger than usual. I sampled this beer on draught as a sampler at the Shirlington Oktoberfest in Arlington, Virginia on 07 October 2006.
