Hösl Märzenbier. Advent Beer Calendar day six.
500 ml/16.9 oz. • 5.3% abv. • ****
Marzen was my "gateway" beer out of big brewing and into craft brewing, so it always holds a special place for me as a style.
The pour is clear golden yellow. It's capped with a finger-thick white head.
Flavors include pretzel dough, leather, beef broth, apple, light leafy bitterness, light spices, and a "clean" airiness.
The mouthfeel is medium. Sips open leaning toward sweetness and then end with a medium-length lightly bitter finish.
This is very enjoyable.
