01-06-21 // 330ml botte. Second bottle. Still not convinced. Better than the first impression though. Very malt forward. Lots of caramel malts. Low hop profile. Like an oldschool German IPA. Naja.

Eulchen Märzen, Fläschchen (MHD: 1.1.22) von naïv, Frankfurt. - Dunkleres Goldbraun, hefetrüb; üppiger lockerer Schaum. - In der Nase warmes, fein karamelliges Malz mit würziger Süße, etwas Honig, ein wenig Orangenlimonade, dezente herbale Hopfung. - Antrunk rund karamelmalzig mit limonadiger Frucht, blasser Bonbonsüße und einer milden säuerlichen Note, die schon über das Normale hinausgeht und zusammen mit dem üppigen Schaumberg auf eine Infektion hindeutet. Milde, ausdruckslose herbale Hopfenherbe. Gut rezent, spritzig, leicht. Im Abgang milde Herbe. - Allzu leichtes Märzen ohne Tiefgang, wohl schon etwas angekränkelt, trotz fernen MHDs. Entäuschend.

Deep amber with a frothy head that fails to linger. Aroma of apricots, toffee and citrus starting to go off. Taste is bittersweet.. a mix of sharp, hoppy bitterness and toffee sweetness. Lingering toffee. Medium bodied, moderate, mildly watery texture. Okay.

Pale, hazy yellow with an instantly fading foamy, white head. Surprisingly grainy aroma for the style. Light floral tones. Taste is predictably sour the whole way through with some very mild tones of lactic sweetness underneath. Medium bodied, fizzy carbonation. Claims its 3.6% but feels stronger. Okayish, but not holding my interest.
