"Weihenstephaner Helles", Flasche von Getränke Hoffmann, Steglitz, 8.7.2025. - Goldgelb, klar. - In Nase wie Antrunk solides, leicht brotiges helles Malz von einiger Tiefe, erfreulich dezente Malzsüße mit einem Hauch von Honig und sortentypisch milde aber frische orangenfruchtige Hopfung. Durchschnittlich rezent. Im Abgang milde zitrusfruchtige Hopfenherbe. - Solides Helles mit etwas mehr Charakter als sonst oft.

Pours a semi-clear golden with some white head. Nose is bread malts, hay, honey and herbal notes. Taste is sweetish, there’s malts, honey and hay with herbal and grassy touches. Closes with a sweet, malty finish, has a light yet rich body and average to high carbonation.

Herber, mild getreidiger Beginn. Überraschend geringe Süße, spritzig, die Herbe steigt an, erfrischend, milde Bitterkeit. Frisch, rund, problemlos. 7/9/11/9/11/9

Bottle from Rewe in Freising. Pale gold with a tall, foamy head. Clean,bready malt nose with a bit of spicy, lemony hop. Slightly worty. Worty, lemony, simple flavor with light oxidation. Simple and disappointing. Not sure why they added this to the lineup.

Bottle. Clear dark gold sporting a proper white head. Aroma of grains, straw and hints of lemons and vanilla. Taste follows aroma. Low to moderate bitterness. Medium carbonation. Balanced, mild and süffig.
