Bernstein Marzen
Fat Pants Brewing Co.

On tap at the brewery

Clear amber pouring beer. There's a white head in the glass.
The aroma is light. I do get hints of cereal, biscuit and caramel.
The flavor is a grain flavor. I get caramel notes in this beer. Some biscuit. It kind of has a amber beer flavor.
Very clean body. Smooth. Decent feeling and fullness.
Tasty and delicious.

 

This is a malty marzen without being overly heavy or sweet — very well-made. At the tap room, pours a deep and clear copper, 1/2 finger head with just a little lacing. Nose has lots of nice yeast, good clean bready notes, maybe some nuttiness, faint caramel and hints of fall earthy warmth. Taste follows. Down the middle of the road, so why the 4s? Everything works together really well, the flavors are bold, clean, distinct...just very well-executed. The body, for the style, might be on the heavy side, a little, but there’s a zippy hoppy edge that cleans everything up and moves the mouthful along nicely
