Brilliante hellgelbe Farbe, klares glanzfeines Aussehen, deutliches Malzaroma, unterlegt mit angenehm leichter Hopfen- und Hefenote. Ein wunderbares Helles, harmonisch, vollmundig und traumhaft ausgewogen.

7.8/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 7.5 Flavor 7.5 Texture 8 Overall 8
Reviewed from notes.
Bottle to mug.
Appearance: clear golden color with a slight cloudiness to it and a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated at a semi-slow pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: straw/lemon hoppy scents with some clean bready malts in there
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a refined sweet quality; finishes about the same with a speck of creaminess
Texture: light to medium bodied; very sessionable; very smooth along the tongue; great carb level
Overall: worthy Helles lager of returning to.

Bottle. Mitchell’s Wines. Very faint haze on a lemony gold. Solid white froth stays the course. Slightly creamy malts behind some lemon pith and light white pepper hoppage. Nice faint whiff of sourness. Taste is semi sweet with some green leaf bitterness. Nice mouthfeel here making for a super easy drinker. Fair crispness to finish. Solid.

Pour is a clear gold with a large white head. Aroma is cracker malt and a nice sulfur. Flavor is more of a white bread malt and a nice mineral. Very tasty helles.

(Draft at Hopfenreich, Berlin, 19 July 2025) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Malty, slightly hoppy nose with bread, herbs, grass and citrus. Malty taste with notes of bread, cereal, citrus, grass and a mild herbal bitterness. Medium body, with a certain malt sweetness. Well balanced and refreshing. Quite nice.

Pours slightly hazed yellow into a stein. White head with medium retention recedes to skim surface. Bread and straw aromas. Medium bodied with sweet honey and hay upfront turning to soft sourdough in the medium length finish.
