Bottle at home. Clear golden color, virtually no head. Smell and taste are malts, hayish, dusty bitter a bit. Quite okay though. I liked it.

Huge thanks to Erzengel for that one! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass with a nice head. Starts mild, malty. Modest dry, shy bitter notes. Light wheaty touch. Finish with some metallical hints. Okay.

0.33 l bottle from local 'REWE', best before May 2025. Clear, golden with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Slightly sweetish, a bit malty, minimally grassy aroma of grains and some straw. Slightly sweet, moderately bitter, a bit grassy, quite musty taste of grains, straw and light vegetables, followed by a short, moderately bitter finish. Thin to medium body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft to average carbonation. Below average Helles.

Bottle. Clear gold with a righteous white head. Aroma of grains and malts. Taste of grains, bread, malts and some vanilla. Low bitterness. Medium carbonation. Mild, inoffensive and süffig. Wasn‘t impressed at first but like a good Helles should it got süffiger as the evening and the BBQ went on.
