Konstantin is a rich, light-ruby colored seasonal lager. Double-decocted for complexity. Drier and lighter in color than most German-style Märzens, biscuit and bread-like malt note shine in the flavor and aroma.

Konstantin pours a perfect amber, color, with a medium, long-lasting lacing head. The aroma is sweet, dark cereal. The flavor is the same, sweeter, but a dark cereal, grain note. GOod feel. Overall, a sweeter marzen, with a good spice note.

A: crystal clear; copper colored; 2 finger light tan head that receded to a wispy cap with a think collar; OK lacing;

S: sweet malt; brown sugar;

T: not much flavor; what's there is less sweet than the aroma; mild bitterness at the end;

M: medium bodied; moderate carbonation; moderately dry finish that continues drying out through the aftertaste;

O: dryer than most marzens; the dry finish gives the impression of increased bitterness, which detracts from what little flavor there is;

Clear brown amber body with a full khaki head and rungs of lacing. Smell has a bready yeast with sweet caramel malts, then overpowered by a wave of earthy grain. Tastes is caramel malt forward, biscuit supports, more hoppy on the finish with yeast, the malt character is the clear driving influence here. Feel is crisp and clean, but carb is higher pushing the yeast to the top of the palate. This is very nice, but perhaps not the most prototypical with the stronger malt depth

16oz can. Bottom stamp reads '080423 018:35 1892'.
Slightly cloudy, pale amber colored body. Two fingers of white head upon pouring, sits around for a spell as a full cap. Leaves behind a few short strings of lacing.
Aroma is faint with toasted malts and floral hops.
Taste expands into full toasted malts with some late caramel. Sweet and fruity hops, with a noticeable late bite. Mellow malts in the aftertaste with a hops afterglow.
Medium mouth feel; very wet in the mouth. Crisp finish. Very good carbonation.
Drinks as if it knows what your mouth and taste buds want for sweetness, bitterness, and flavors.

A very easy pour was needed to keep the head under two inches. Beautiful amber-orange body, striking shiny copper in sun light. The light beige head is short lived, fizzy and soapy with large bubbles that leave behind kettle holes.

Bread dough and toast greets the nose with baked fruits (apple, pear etc.) and a hint of caramel sweetness. Hop aroma is moderate, spicy and herbal.

Semi sweet with average bitterness, bready malt is in charge with balancing hops that keeps the sweet malt taste in check, not as sweet as the smell suggested. The finish is quick and soft, only slightly drier, bitterness builds to above average. The aftertaste clears up fast, spicy hops and toast linger briefly.

Medium bodied with lasting carbonation despite the quickly shrinking head, a swish will bring it back. Smooth, balanced, easy to pound and it warms well-if you don't like to pound.

Pours a dark reddish color with a small foamy head that lasts quite a while. Aroma of lightly roasted malts with floral notes. Taste is spicy. Crisp and dry.
