A timeless classic. We have been brewing Ottakringer Helles ever since the brewery was established. It has been in a constant state of change and has developed its taste with time: The best hops and malt, and mild spring water from our in-house brewery well provide an even balance between a light malt aroma with fruity notes and pleasant bitterness. The straw colour and fresh yeast aroma are trademarks of this beer.

A classical beer, on the German way, on the same way of the Feld original, better in my point of view with something more subtle. 01.03.2020, drinking it in the zoological park in Wien, after a nice day in family.

Bottiglia. Il gusto al naso è indirizzato verso l'orzo. La finezza olfattiva è normale e l'esistenza olfattiva è sufficiente. Il manto birroso superiore è caratterizzato da una schiuma dalla buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana medio-fine. La parte liquida si presenta limpida. Bollicine medio-fini costituiscono anche la forma della frizzantezza. Il colore è giallo dorato brillante. Il corpo è rotondo. L'amaro è contenuto. La forza gustativa è normale e si prolunga in modo sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di facile beva. Il finale è semplice e dissetante. Il retrogusto è di media intensità. Sul palato si riportano indizi di miele, cereali, erba e agrumi.

Can from Interspar, Feldkirch. Aroma is mostly just grainy malt. Flavour is light bitter. Body is light, a bit on the watery side. Drinkable, but doesn’t have a lot of character. *** Re-rate: My original rating was harsh, this is an okay Lager. Soft grassy noble hop and grainy malt.

0.5 l can from a local Kaufland store in Zagreb. Shared with Habas. Clear golden, white head. Light malty, grainy and bready. Quite sweet, sweet corn flavour. Minimal hop flavour or bitterness. Light body, quite crisp, soft to moderate carbonation, light finish. Forgettable.

Dieses Bier erstrahlt in einem klaren Hellgoldgelb. Feine Perlage steigt hoch. Die weiße, feinporige Schaumkrone zeigt sich dabei flaumig und mäßig gut haltbar. In der Nase vernimmt man malzige Noten von Brot und Honig, sowie leicht grasig-florale Noten des Hopfens. Der Antrunk kommt frisch, angenehm spritzig, zart malzig und leicht trocken Hopfenherb. Im Mundgefühl präsentiert sich ein mäßig voller Körper mit leicht moussierender, deutlicher Rezenz, geschmeidig-leichter Textur und angenehmer Trockenheit. Geschmacklich und aromatisch vernimmt man zarte, leicht verwässerte Malznoten, die in eine leicht weinartige Säure abgleiten. Dazu gesellt sich eine trocken-heuig wirkende Hopfenherbe. So ergibt sich ein eher mäßiges, überschaubares Gesamtbild und eine ebenso mäßige Drinkability. Im Nachtrunk passieren die bereits erwähnten Aromen nochmal revue und eine leicht trockene Hopfenherbe bleibt am Ende stehen.

Can 50 cl. Golden, clear, good white foam. Aroma: malty, a little biscuit, a little herbaceous-spicy hops. Malty taste, cookies with peanuts, candy, a little hop bitterness, nothing special.

0,5 L can, at the Vienna airport, drunk from the can. Hay, light spruce, coriander, and rye. Sweet and malty, with a mild, resinous bitterness. Light, crisp, and lively. Pretty fair.
