Bottle 50 cl. Pours a clear golden with a white head. Clean, malty nose with a hint of sulphur. Solid malty body with some sweetness. Subdued bitterness. Nothing fancy, could've wished for a little more on the aroma side, but usual solid German craftmanship. 100124

500 ml bottle. Clear dark golden with a small head. Grain, malt, cooked vegetables, hay, nuts. Malty sweetness. Full bodied, oily texture, soft carbonated, malty grainy sweet finish. Not great, not bad either, a mediocre Festbier.

Bottle from Lidl (10x Oktoberfest case of beers). Pours clear golden with a large thick throthy white head. Aroma is very malty with sweet grains, hay and doughy white bread. Taste is very bready with a touch more grains and hay and a long sweet malty finish. Gentle grassy hops balance the beer nicely. Full body with just the right carbonation producing a very good mouthfeel. Well above average Marzen. A beer you could gulp and gulp all night long. Good stuff!
