Appearance - 4 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5

Bottle: Hazy copper coloured, no head to speak of, mild to moderate sweetish-bitter aroma of toasted malt, Vienna malt, traces of caramel and a certain fruitiness, shy herbal hops underneath; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied and fizzy; increasing sweetness (!) towards the Viennese malty finish, some herbal spots in the mild bitter aftertaste. Quite O.K. ...

Yes, of course a bottle from kappldav123. Thanks a lot mate! Cloudy copper with a small fast fading head in the glass. Malty grainy smell. Taste has grainy caramel, some nuts, little bit toasted. Mid alcoholic bitterness. Not bad for a Heller Bock.

Bottle at home. Looks simple but good. Beer in the glass zippy, small head. Dry malty aroma. Starts mild, malty, yeasty hints. Light alcoholic background. Spicy-malty finish, light herbal touch. Okay.

Deep amber with a thin, frothy white head. Aroma mostly lost under the woodsmoke of our Grillabend, but picked up traces of caramel and honey. Taste is mildly sweet with a light, grainy bitterness at the finish. Body to the full side of medium, carbonation mild. Simple and uncomplicated. Still pleasant though.

Bottle. Clear dark gold/amber with a decent white head. Aroma of honey, caramel, grains, herbal hops and straw. Taste is malts, grains, herbal hops, honey and some boozy sweetness. Stale bitterness. Strong carbonation. Ok.
