On tap at DeGusto, Bergamo. Malty, sweetish, super light and easy drinkable, but also stale. Touch of bitterness in finish. Almost no carbonation. Quite odd for the style.

Meinel-Bräu Kellermärzen, naturtrüb & nachhaltig, Flasche vom Landbierparadies24. - Orangegold, hefetrüb. - In der Nase erstaunlich wenig: blasse Orangenschale, ein Hauch von Karamel, eine Andeutung herbaler Herbe. - Antrunk limonadig dünn und verwaschen karamelmalzig mit allzu matter, an ein Weizen erinnernder Hopfung. Runde Malzsüße, von mir aus auch Baguette, Hefe. Milder rezent, spritzig leicht oder vielmehr dünn. Im Abgang äußerst dezente orangenbittere Hopfenherbe. - Von einem Märzen erwarte ich kernig gerstige Malzigkeit und solide Hopfung, aber das hier wirkt verzärtelt und dünn wie ein Damenbier - pardon, Hefeweizen. Enttäuschend. (10.7.2021.)

330ml bottle. Minimally cloudy, amber colour with small to average, frothy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Caramel malty, minimally bready spicy and minimally doughy, yeasty aroma, buttery overtones. Taste is sweet-ish, caramel malty and slightly fruity, bitter hoppy, minimally bready spicy and doughy yeasty, buttery overtones. Minimally creamy, watery texture, smooth and soft, minimally creamy palate, fine, soft, mildly prickly carbonation. Balanced, harmonious, with nice, minimal dirtiness - pretty decent.
