Tap. Clear golden color with creamy white head. Aroma is cereals, grassy, grainy, a touch vegetal. Taste is grainy, juicy fruits, again a touch vegetal. Oily mouthfeel with quite foamy carbonation. Not great.

Bottle bought @ Landbierparadies. Pours tiny hazy golden with a rather small frothy white head that leaves some sparse trace on the glass while dissipating. Smell is slightly malty, grainy and floral with freshly baked white bread, whole grain crackers, cereal, hay, lilacs, honey, minerals and lemon peal. Taste is sweet, tiny bitter, malty and floral. Mouthfeel is soft, round, tiny crisp and medium bodied. Finish is sweet and tiny bitter with whole grain crackers, cereal, honey, hay, dried flowers, minerals and lemon peal. Bit sweet but the malt base gives me goosebumps. This also works extremely well with fatty food (having it with some Fuet salami). I very much love the honey character. --- Beer merged from original tick of Ur-Hell on 12 Sep 2015 at 20:04 - Score: 8. Original review text: Magical malt depth. Lilacs, honey and freshly baked bread. World class lager!

Bottled, from Landbierparadies. Clear deep golden, rocky head. Spicy nose with Earl Grey tea. Mid sweet with medium body and soft, deep malt profile. Gentle, yet rich. Mouthfilling seemless flavour of dough, spice and tea. Long growing bitterness. A lager of extraordinary quality. Never had a bottled helles with this much depth.

Bottle looks simple but really good. Nice coloured. Beer in the glass zippy, nice head. Starts mild, but not washy. Fine malty-spicy, some interesting notes that remind me of butter cookies. Well balanced finish with some wheaty notes. Nice!

Das Helle vom Mager, vom Faß beim Mager in Pottenstein. - Antrunk frisch-würzig, erinnert an Kräutertee. Kräftig malzig-nussig aber nicht süß. Die pfeffrige Hopfennote kann sich auch gegen ein paniertes Schnitzel behaupten. Sehr süffig, im Abgang ganz leichte Honigsüße, fränkischer Hopfen. Leidet wie so viele Helle unter einer leichten Metallnote. - Außergewöhnlich aromatisches Helles. (6.11.2013: 3,5.) Neuverkostung, ebendort. - Tiefes, zart honigsüßes helles Malz, milde aber aromatische kräuterige Hopfung. Milder rezent, vollmundig. Metallische Aromen konnte ich diesmal nicht feststellen. - Kernig malzig, gut abgelagert, ein Helles mit Körper und Tiefgang. Ein Klassiker, noch besser als in meiner Erinnerung. (28.2.2020.)

Bottled (from an old box from landbierparadies.de). Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is sweet malts, mild bready notes as well as some herbs and quite floral notes. Flavour is grassy, floral, some bready malts along with some mild toffee and herbs.
