(bottle) Clear, golden colour with a mid-sized foamy white head. Minimal sweet and slightly malty nose with a good dash of herbal, almost a bit ethereally hops. Quite bitter flavour, medium to light bodied with a crispy mouthfeel. Soft malty base with a good accentuation of herbal hops (at least for a Helles); finishes dry and hopbitter. Good ! (16.V.09).

The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. Nice aroma. Starts mild, not very yeasty, more malty. Finish more fruity. Well balanced finish. Nice.

The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. The beer tastes strong, modest yeasty, very fruity, like plum, a bit alcoholic. Warming and prickly finish. Not bad!

The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. Starts nicely yeasty, modest fruity, but the finish is much too washy. Not so good.

[bottle] Clear, dark brown colour with medium-sized, slightly off-white foamy head. Light-sweet, toasty and slightly ashy aroma with subtle fruity notes and a nice presence of herbal hops. Light-bitter flavour, medium bodied with a calm carbonation. Toast-malty taste with caramel, dark bread and a subtle and almost vinous fruity touch. Toasty and moderately bitter finish with herbal hoppy accents. Pleasant Dunkel [28.I.09].
