Die Farbe zeigt sich kräftig goldgelb. Dazu eine überschaubare feine Perlage, die langsam nach oben steigt. Die weiße, feinporige Schaumkrone gibt sich akkurat stabil und ebenso ganz gut haltbar. Im Duft sehr süßlich und leicht staubig - Zuckermais, leichte fruchtige Hefe und zarte Noten von Getreide und Brot. Der Antrunk kommt angenehm frisch und leicht malzig bis herb. Am Gaumen ebenso süßliche Aromen von Zuckermais und Getreide/Brot, aber auch eine etwas kantig-herbe Hopfenaromatik. Ich weiß nicht recht was ich davon halten soll. Es ist nicht übel, aber auch nicht wirklich harmonisch. Die Bezeichnung "mäßig" trifft es wahrscheinlich am besten. Ja... in allen Belangen mäßig. Der Abgang flacht von der Malzaromatik her relativ rasch ab. Nach einiger Zeit bleiben Hopfenherbe und dieses etwas unpassende Zuckermais-Aroma übrig.

Bottle at home. Pours clear golden with white head. Aroma of light bread, malt, some floral and citrussy notes. Tastes slightly sweet with balancing bitterness. Thin bodied. Definitely a very good Helles.

Bottle, 5.1%. Weak dusty and floral hop aroma. Clear golden colour. Small stable frothy white head. The flavour is nicely papery and bready with a sort of liquorice note than tastes better than it sounds. Quite malty, and almost sweet, but not sugary at all.

Bottle. Pours clear pale golden with airy white head. Clear aroma of yeast, with notes of malt and papery touches. Sour-sweetish flavour of yeast, with notes of malt and papery touches. Estery and malty aftertaste. OK.

330ml bottle. Crysatl clear, orangey golden colour with small to average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Grainy, strawy, pale malty aroma, a touch of malt spiciness. Taste is sweet-ish, grainy, pale malty, minimally strawy, a touch of cereals, bitter hoppy counterpart. Slightly oily, watery texture, rather dry palate, fine, prickly carbonation. Clean, refreshing, well hopped, not too sweet - OK.

Bottle at home. Clear golden color with a nice full sized white head. Aroma and flavor are malts, hayosh, more fresh and more sweetish it seems compared to some other classic German helles. Average body and carbonation. Pleasant.
