Clear golden amber appearance with a thin beige head. Some smoke to the sweet caramel malt nose. Bitter earthy hops with toasted caramel malt, but the yeast is bland and thin, and again the smoke is there but as a hint on the finish. Feel is malty and thin, kind of flat too despite the visible carbonation. Meh

12oz can. Can is stamped for best by date of '11/9/21'.
Pale amber colored body. Off white, creamy head settles back to partial cap. Leaves a few spots of lacing.
Aroma of toasted bread and honey. Has a slight bit of spicy hops.
Taste is somewhat sweet toasted malts. Balanced by the slightly spicy hops.
Medium mouth feel. Good carbonation.
Balanced Marzen lager with a crisp enough finish.

Can from izzyismyrott.
clear brown color. Moderate white head with lacing.
Smells like honey biscuit, Graham cracker. Some light herbal noble hop smell.
Medium - light carbonation And mouthfeel.
honey, biscuit taste, caramel, slight toastiness. Very minimal grassy/herbal noble hop taste.
Overall a solid beer in the arena of authentic European Oktoberfest style.

Poured a clear, auburn gold body with minimal head and spotty lace. Mildly sweet malt aroma with a hop aroma that is perfume-like. Crisp, clean, some citric zest and a caramel malt sweetness adds some heft underneath the beer. Has a zip of a finish and isn't a bad beer but nothing amazing.
