For beer: try to get Löwenbräu, Spaten or another Munich producer. Oktoberfest (aka Märzen) is the style you’d want. Failing that, you could look for a local producer of the same style. And while not typical of Oktoberfest,...

Biersch Marzen (sorry, no umlaut) may be the closest thing to a Vienna lager that’s readily available. But if a sixer of Schwelmer Bernstein presents itself, please accept my thanks in advance.

you know i’ve passed by that place practically everyday since i was 5 going to chinatown with my mom. i think it’s about time i try this place. i do love me some al pastor. at the dodger game, these days, it’s...

of the best burgers I’ve had here in New York. Also got a chance to try out the Iron City Beer and the Penn Marzen, both good with the burger. Price was on point at $20 a person with food drinks, tax and tip. Having a...

Seeing you are talking about the big ‘6’, oops, I mean the big ‘5’ now that Paulaner and Hacker Pschorr are the same (though the beer is not luckily) company. Yes, Maerzen/Marzen is a style served as well...

If you want your beer ice cold, it is probably best to stick to what you like and not venture into the more flavorful lagers. As was stated elsewhere, there are many styles of lager, not just watery yellow stuff. Marzen, Dunkel,...

in SF (maybe still are). They have a mighty tasty Marzen. Woodland used to have a good brewpub, Dead Cat Alley Brewery in, where else, Deat Cat Alley (right around the corner from City Hall.

I overdosed on San Miguel when I was in the Philipines, since that’s all they had there. I usually pick up Gordon Biersh Marzens at the Grocery. Also like MacTarnahan’s. As far as Mexican beer, I try to stick with the...

If you wanted to explore other such beers, you could look at Gordon Biersch Marzen, if you’re in an area where they sell, or some of the German festbiers such as Spaten Oktoberfest. But they might also be sweeter than you...

beer and to me that shows the true ability of the brewer. Pilsner fans in PA are truely blessed that Victory, Troegs, Stoudt and Penn make very, very good Pilsners here. Penn is certainly my favorite though. Another great Penn...

I’ll recommend Old Rasputin Imperial Stout by North Coast to follow the stout category. Trumer Pils for an alt to Corona. Gordon Birsch Marzen might be enjoyed, not to hoppy, not too rich, but great for spring.

percentage of roasted barley added to its grain bill. (There’s more info in the George and Laurie Fix book on Oktoberfest/Vienna/Marzen). Maybe that’s what CP was referring to.

I love my Gorden Biersch Marzen...living in Los Angeles, I don’t know what “winter” or “summer” is.....never been a fan of Sierra Nevadas for some reason or another....love the Rouge brews.....yum.

Hey! I just finished a bottle of Aecht Schlenferla Rauchbier “Urbock” about 10 minutes ago. Wonderful, smells like salami and fresh bread. Get it at Binny’s for about $3.00 for a big bottle. They also have the "...

haven’t had time to read the other replies yet, and of course there’s an element of apples and oranges (marzens and stouts?) to this task but...in no particular order... DBA on first ave and 2nd st: I hate the dry...
