(bottle, labelled as Bürgerbräu Bamberg Urtyp Hell with 4.7 % ABV) Clear, pale golden colour with a non-persistent foamy white head. Sweet malty, slightly grainy aroma with honey and slightly metallic hops. Moderately sweet flavour, grainy taste with herbal hoppy accents, dry, slightly bitter and short finish with herbal hops and a tinge of metal. More an mediocre Export than a Helles.

Honeyish malt, aromatic hop aroma, also a hint of sponge after the initial exitement wears off. Clear pale golden with a greenish tint, lowish fluffy head. Malt is comparably subdued, somewhat empty middle, good bitter exit. Somewhat lightbodied, the brew is perhaps closer in style to north german pilsener.
