Bottle from HopDog. Light gold amber, moderate head. Clean, honey like Helles nose. Not deathly sweet like a lot of Heller Bock but still on the sweeter side, mild flavor and a pinch of clean hops. Malty and honey grain character.

Bottle courtesy of Gregor, HopDog, cheers! Had this at home, Sunday 18th October 2020 at home after a 56km cycle ride to/from Reiter Bräu at Wartenberg. Pours clear gold with a white head, malty nose (though subtle), soft in the mouth maltiness more strident here, nice sweetness. There is not a lot to this but it is very good all the same. Btw bottle states 7.5%

Bottle from Hop, Burns & Black. Says 7.5% on the label. It pours clear yellow gold with a thick, foamy white head. The aroma is sweet and sticky, oily, sugary sponge cake, iced donut, brioche and some grass. The taste is initially dry and grassy, then the sweetness kicks in, rich and fatty, almonds, biscotti, marzipan, boozy kick, iced donut and sweet sponge cake with a dryer, grassy finish. Medium+ body and fine, foamy carbonation. Booze and grass balance out the sweetness a bit. Decent enough for the style.

(Keg at Pikkulintu Ruttopuisto, 20200126) The beer poured golden and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had grass and malts. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grass, malts, sweetness, grain and bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet, malty and bitter. A pleasant clean malty brew with grassy hops and higher ABV.
