500ml bottle. Slightly milky, yellow-ish, golden colour with small to average, frothy to creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, snow white head. Minimally husky and strawy, pale malty and slightly perfumed, herbal-grassy and citrusy fruity, hoppy aroma, hints of lemon balm, nettle. Taste is minimally husky, strawy, pale malty with very low residual sweetness and herbal-grassy, minimally citrusy fruity, hoppy, hints of nettle, a touch of lemon balm.

Sharing this bottle with my wife, yesterday with mushrooms that I have found in the forest. A basic and refreshing lager, personally, I prefer the original version. This one is soft, watery, malty, smooth, basical bitterness, 21.12.23, at Epalinges.

Heller, leicht süßer Malzbeginn. Moderate Herbe, frisch, geringfügig hopfig. Spritzig, zunehmend herb, hohe Süffigkeit. Einfach, nicht zu laff, gelungen. 10/9/10/10/9/10

Klare goldgelbe Farbe; feinporige, stabile Schaumkrone. In der Nase ziemlich malzig, getreidig und deutlich würzig, Hopfen macht sich nur minimal im Hintergrund durch ein leicht blumiges Aroma bemerkbar. Im Geschmack ebenfalls betont malzig und leicht würzig, milde Bittere, relativ trocken mit leichter Malzsüße, wenig (für mich etwas zu wenig) Kohlensäure. Hat durchaus Charakter.

0,5 l, can.
One of the most decent Hell type beers I tried in Germany.

60 cl can carried back from Germany. Thanks to Frank & Jody. Mild hay nose, clean. Hazy golden, low carb. Flavor of lightly sweet hay, mildly honey. Light body, sweet honey finish. Easy drinking and clean. Nice!

An meinem letzten Arbeitstag in diesem Jahr kommt der goldene Ochse 🐄 aus Ulm daher.
Dieser ist eigentlich recht mild und leicht und süffig zu trinken - also mehr leichtes Gold als schwerer Ochs. 🐮
Ich finde es nicht zu speziell, aber als solches gut gelungen.

Many thanks to Gabriel 💥 Tight white head stayed on a chill hazy finely carbonated body. Tobacco, malt & grain aroma. Medium bodied, lively on the tongue with a smooth cloying back. Malt, citrus, cereal & bready tastes with a soapy finish. Rather lackluster.

0.5 l can, best before May 2024. Clear, golden with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, slightly malty and a bit floral aroma of grains, some straw and traces of lemon peel. Quite sweet, malty, moderately bitter, a little floral taste of grains, some straw, a touch of vanilla and hints of lemon peel, followed by a short, moderately bitter, slightly dry finish. Thin to medium body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Average Helles, quite drinkable but fairly bland.

Can from a Netto shop in Konstanz, with its Lake Constance setting. Pours a golden colour with a thick frothy head. Fairly standard brew, nothing too flavoursome here.
