Pounder can off the $1 clearance shelf. Date code feb 2023, so it is a little aged, hehehh. In my steeler mug its hazy off pale. heavy lime nose. First taste is quite lime, but it carries a little bitterness of the lime peel as well. I don't think there was any squeezing of lime in this, just grind up whole limes and throw it in. Hard to pick out the cherries. A little tart and a little sweet, but yet you can still tell its beer. Decent level of carbonation in there. Middle turns out to be quite refreshing, this stuff is starting to grow on me. A quick burp yields total lime, hah! In the end this is a pretty decent brew and I was quite happy with it. It finished with a nice lime finish and a medium length lime peel effect.

Honey color with a large foamy white head that left excellent lacing. Tangy and somewhat buttery with a cherry note. Medium finish and body.

16 oz can. Pours a clear yellow with a white head. Pale malt and honey in the aroma. Flavor is very light, pale malt, a bit of honey, herbal hop. It's okay, but just not much going on.

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a clearish straw gold with a finger of white foam that dissipates quickly. Lovely Mosaic focused nose with citrus and blueberry aromas. More of the same on the palate. Carbonation was a little low, but nothing too distracting. Berry and citrus again on the palate with a drying finish.

Deep copper and bronze coloured body with a nice thinnish off-white head, that only covers the top and barely a centimetre in height. Aroma of very toffee-y and sticky sugars with some caramelised notes and a good dash of stone fruits, but the crisp grainy malts seem to dominate and allow in some moderate nuttiness, in the nose, at least. Medium-bodied; Pretty crisp grainy and malty notes dominate with some light nuts and earthiness, with a rustic bitterness, seemingly from the hops, which are on the lighter side, but do show through towards the end. Aftertaste shows a good blend of malt and hops, with a nice sweetness and slight nuttiness at the finish, but the crisp stone fruits and even light touch of grapefruit does finish this off nicely, with a distinct bready component, as well. Overall, a nice and robust, fairly easy-drinking Marzen, that shows a lot of enjoyable and earthy malts, with a crisp dose of hops and good sugars throughout - good to sample for the season, and the can front makes it that much better! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Beer Baron in Livonia, Michigan on 22-October-2022 for US$10,99/four pack, sampled in my hotel room here in Newport News, Virginia on 18-November-2022.
