Egger Märzenbier

A typical Austrian Märzenbier, mildly hoppy, highly fermented and full-bodied in taste. With 5.0% alcohol by volume and original gravity of 11.5ºPlato, it is a highly drinkable, well-rounded beer with a pronounced malt flavour. Award winner at national and international beer competitions, Gold Medal winner and holder of Monde Selection International High Quality Trophy.

“Märzen” is derived from the German word for the month of March, März. Traditionally, beer was brewed in the autumn, and the barrels of beer would be covered with ice during the cold winter months. By the time the ice melted in March, the beer would be ready to drink.

3.0 Uit het blik. Ruikt moutig. Smaakt moutig, fris, iets kruidig en gehopt en iets bitter in de afdronk.

2.7 clear golden colour, medium sized creamy snow-white head, which lasts for several minutes; aroma of hay, bread crust, some wet cardboard, metallic and minimal citric notes; taste has similar notes as can be felt in the aroma; drinkable

2.4 The aroma of sweets and malt. Golden beer, clear with a little white head. Malt on the palate, slight sweetness. The body is light, the carbonation is medium.

2.7 Bottle from Systembolaget. (labeled as Original) Clear light golden with a large white head. Quite sweet with bread, light butter and grain. Light bitterness. Drinkable but nothing special.

2.8 Pale golden color, medium white head. Malty, dry aroma, with traces of spicy hops. Taste is malty, medium mouthfeel, and light bitterness. To me this is an avergae helles, not a märzen.

2.2 A large can from City Super in Zhongxiao Fuxing. Aroma: vegetal, fresh hops. Appearance: Semi-opaque light amber, pours a generous foamy head. Palate: light-bodied and oily, rather soft carbonation, bitter with sweet notes at the finish. Taste: lightly bitter, floral notes, slightly soapy.

2.8 Klare goldene Farbe mit weißer Schaumkrone. Malziger, schwach hopfiger Geruch. Geschmacklich malzig, leicht hopfig, leicht getreidig. Mittlere Süße mit leichter Bitterkeit, mittlerer Körper mit sanfter Kohlensäure.

3.0 0,33 l bottle from Systembolaget Enköping. Average lager, drinkable but nothing more

2.8 Decent Märzen, overly watery and alkaline for the style but not terrible, also not memorable (16.9 oz can, Billa, Kyiv)

2.9 500 ml can. Poured clear golden with white head. The aroma of grain, apple zest and bread. The taste is malty-sweet and herbaceous bitter, with hints of apple and honey. Herbal aftertaste.

2.7 Flaska. Gyllengul, klar öl med ett vitt skum. Doft och smak av malt, säd och en lätt gräsig beska.

3.3 Egy egyszerű, ugyanakkor kiváló ivósör, ami szinte bármikor jólesik. Édeskés, kissé cukros illat, malátán van a hangsúly. Ízben is ez jön át, minimális komlókeserűvel.

3.2 330 ml bottle from Systembolaget. Clear golden with white head. Breads malty with long bitter finish. Dry with medium bitterness and medium carbonation.

2.8 Lys gul klar med hvitt skum. Lukter loff og malt. Lett. Maltig. Maltekstrakt, gjær og korn. Kort.

2.5 Can as a gift. Aroma is sweetish grainy malt with soft bready notes, hint of noble hop. Flavour is a bit sweetish with a light bitterness. Medium body. Drinkable, too malty sweet to impress.

2.5 Bottle from Systembaolget. This was actually a fresh and drinkable lager. Easy going. Thin looking.

3.1 Ljusgul med fint vitt skum. Doftar malt, lite metalliskt. Smaken fyllig och söt. Eftersmaken tämligen kort och söt, ytterst lite besk. God, men lite för söt.

3.1 330 ml bottle at the vacay house. Clear golden with short white head. Malty and clean, sweet bready notes with mild floral notes. Low bitterness

2.9 Bottled from Systembolaget Clear golden with a medium head. Grainy and grassy. Sweet with sugary streaks. A bit mashy. Light ro medium bitterness.

2.4 @ Röhälla 20200622. Flaska (330 ml) från Systembolaget. Maltig och brödig med gräs och honung, lätt kropp och en vattnig till oljig konsistens. Avslutningen är besk.

2.2 Så standardiserad som något standardiserat kan vara. Pilsnermaltdoften är totalt dominerande med sitt tirkade gräs och brödighet. Smaken är maltbaserad med en lätt humlebäska. Helt ok genomsnittspilsner.

2.9 Flaska 330 ml från Systembolaget. Guldgul med vitt skum som snabbt lägger sig. Smak och doft av malt, honung, bröd och citrus.

2.6 Bottle (33 cl) from Systembolaget. Clear golden, medium white head. Bready, honeyish malt aroma. Semi dry, low to medium bitterness.

2.7 Klarowne, złota barwa, niska i szybko znikająca piana. W smaku słòd, delikarna kwaskowość w tle, rodzynkowe nuty. Finisz delikatnie gorzki.

2.3 Piana wysoka, dość trwała, zdobi szkło. W aromacie słodko, słodowo, raczej muląco. Z ogrzewaniem wychodzi trochę jasnoowocowych estrów, ale poza tym bez większych wad. W smaku słodkawe, jasnosłodowe, musujące od wysycenia. Brak goryczki, raczej słodki posmak. Z jednej strony mulące, z drugiej nijakie. Słabe po prostu.

2.9 Golden yellow colour, clear. White foam which dissolves rather quickly and leaves little residue. Visibly carbonated. Aromas of white bread, fruit (pears, apples), hops. Initially citrus fruit, tingly mouthfeel. Turns into honeyed apple, bitter notes become more apparent. Finish is apple cider. Leaves a rather dry mouthfeel. Overall quite nice despite the bitter tendencies.

2.7 A little soapy but pleasant enough.

3.1 Clear light golden with a white head that dilapidates quickly. Citrus aroma and taste, otherwise mild and easy to drink. Refreshing

2.8 Golden straw color with excellent foam. Nose. Moderate. Malt (beer wort) is a little grassy hops. Taste. The body is pleasant, Taste Malt, bready, slightly sweet, after hopes tasted very little ..

2.6 500 ml can. Clear pale yellow color with small white head. Smells some yeast and caramel. Taste are light bitter with grain malts and some honey and caramel notes. Short Time aftertase dry caramel with little bitternes.
