In 1753, farmer Antonius Cramer was asked to pay beer tax for the first time as his home brewing volumes surpassed by some way the volume allowed for personal consumption. Little did he know that his actions would kick-start a long-standing brewing tradition in Warstein – a small town located in the middle of the beautiful Arnsberg forest, in the heart of Germany’s Sauerland region. Since that date, the business has gone from strength to strength.

500ml can. Pours a clear mahogany with a medium, creamy, long lasting, beige head that leaves soapy curtains of lace. Aroma of roasted malt, earth, dark chocolate and nuts. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, caramel, dark chocolate and date in a dry, bitter coffee finish. Light body with a watery texture and average to soft carbonation. Malt forward and easy to drink.

It is a classical German beer, it is a märzen beer not really a Christmas beer, metalic, malty, some hop and a bit watery, not bad, 23.01.17, at Prélaz, bottle coming from Amstein.

330 ml, can.
My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
I had high hopes from this beer, as last time I had a Christmas beer was back in 2018, in the States. Welp, this is "only" a marzen, which I like - but I was expecting so much more from it :( My bad, not even the label is saying that it has any kind of extra spice or aroma in it..
