16 oz. can from the brewery. Thanks Kathy! Pours a crystal clear golden-bronze color with a large, tight khaki head and great retention. Good lacing. Lots of streaming carbonation. Caramel malt aroma. The taste follows the nose: Lightly sweet caramel malt flavor with a clean and crisp finish. Nice blend of Marzen and Festbier styles. And the 7.0% ABV is invisible. Uber repeatable. Medium body and medium-light carbonation. Not bitter. Great beer!

16 oz. can from the brewery. Thanks Kathy! Pours a very dark brown-black color with dark ruby highlights and a light tan head and good retention. Great lacing too. Dark nutty malt aroma. The taste follows the nose: Dark roasted malts, roasted nuts, and a hint of smoke in the finish. Really smooth and clean. Really tasty. Medium body. Medium-light carbonation. Low bitterness. I'm a fan.

Sample at the taproom. The beer is a clear orange-amber color with a medium thin bone white head that recedes steadily to an outer ring. Sparse strings of lace. Caramel, malt and mild hops in the nose. Light to medium body with flavors of caramel malt, fruit and mild earthy hop. The finish is sweet with a malty aftertaste. Decent overall.
