Dunno if this is right. Different label altogether (see pic). This has its own entry on UT. Same ABV though. Still a Hell. Anyway. Clear pale gold. Thin but decent white foam. On the sweet cereal side aroma wise. Some slightly sweaty herbal hop leaf. Taste is similarly sweet up front. Some dryness. Model bitterness. Dry-ish finish with that sweetness still lingering. Ok, but nothing to shout too loud about.

Bottle from Meibier. Grainy malty aroma with cereal, straw. Flavour is sweeter than I like my Helles, light bitter. Body is medium. On the sweet side, drinkable but nothing special.

Bottle from Meibier. Aroma is sweetish brown malt with caramel, notes of brown sugar. Sweetish flavour, light bitter. Body is medium. A bit too sugary for my taste.
