Optisch klares Gold im Glas, feine Perlung, Schaum genauso. In der Nase Getreide, Hafer. Im Trunk etwas wässrig, fast plädderich. Schade.

Optisch trübes, leicht abgedunkeltes Gelb im Glas. Feiner Schaum. In der Nase fruchtig, Banane. Im Trunk dann auch Nelke, erst süß dann bitter, es schwingt aber auch etwas Säure mit. Okay.

Bottle at the brewery Merkendorf. Banana chocolate aroma. It's decent. Solid. No off flavours or bits that stand out. Some malt in mouth. Light hops on the finish. Decent chocolate flavour in the mouth. Over a decent banana lemon weizen beer.

On tap at the brewery Merkendorf. Clear dark gold colour lasting white head. Now that is a tasty Marzen. Decent malt. Very decent hop on the finish white pepper hop flavour. Some good solid pale malts give a slight nutty honey flavour. I thought excellent us what I come to Franconia for.

On tap at the brewery Merkendorf. Clear gold colour lasting white head. Looks a bit carbonated. Yes some carbonated acid sting. Some pale malt is fine. Not much hop a little lemon on the finish. Not as good as Wagner Helles round the corner. This is more a straight up regular helles. OK

Pours a beautfiul looking deep red with darker hints, still almost transparent. Medium sized, quite dense head, the slightest off-white: pretty good persistence and some lacing. Average intensity in a relatively simple, straightforward aroma: smoked notes are mainly woody (campfire, ashes) with lighter smoked ham hints, a background of nutty and slightly caramelly maltiness, a hint of floral hops. Taste notes follow the aroma closely. There's quite good taste intensity and a nicely clean flavour profile. Medium sweetness, average per style intensity in the smoked component, a bit more bitterness than usual per style, especially in a quite dry, floral hops finish. Light to medium body, average to slightly sub-average carbonation; a quite smooth easy drinker, as usual for german lagers, maybe a bit more "dryish" than others. Very nice.

Leicht trübe strohgelbe Farbe, dichte und stabile Schaumkrone; in der Nase leicht säuerlich, hopfig, würzig und getreidig; im Geschmack auch mit deutlicher Säure, aber leichter Süße, getreidig, milde Hopfenbittere. Insgesamt etwas merkwürdig, vielleicht einen Monat vor MHD schon überlagert?
