Can shared thanks to Sjoerd. Clear golden. Crisp malts, light dough, a touch of zesty hops. Medium sweet, light bitter. Crisp body, under medium full. Decent.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to mug.
Appearance: yellow color with a sly transparency and a three finger white foamy head which took it's time to dissipate then leave some light lace
Aroma: light floral to earthy hops entertaining some clean biscuity malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas semi-bitter with a nice underlying sweetness; finishes crisp with floral to earthy hops
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; fairly smooth along the tongue
Overall: to me a nice Helles lager I would return to.

0,44 l can out of the fridge from n & m Genuss, Vechta. BB 04/26. Cloudy yellow golden with a small one finger white head. Sweet citrus fruity aroma with some caramel. Taste starts with a dry citrus fruity bitterness. Grape and some yeast. Thins out in the second part. Helles? Okay, but not reinventing the wheel.

Can shared at Naiv. Great malt-forward lager with notes of bread and grains and a hint of grassy, herbal hops. Somewhat crisp body with average carbonation. Refreshing and tasty.

Color dorado claro, turbia, corona de espuma tipo clara de huvo batida, firme, resistente, dejando mucho residuo. Aroma con matices florales, cereal, malta, pan blanco, hierba, lúpulo. En boca es de cuerpo medio a ligero, chispeante, seca, notas cítricas, cereal, hierba, cereal en grano. Dulzor medio, algo mas subida de amargor que de dulzor, aunque siemprer de intensidad media. Cerveza de buena calidad, rica y sabrosa.
