This reminds me of the sweet soft Bavarian Helles beers. I really like this beer a lot. Wish I could get it in Germany.

Draught, 5.0% at the brewpub. Lagery aroma. Hazy golden orange colour. Small creamy white head. The flavour is nicely malty with a subtle aroma hop, slightly sweet but well-balanced. Creamy mouthfeel, I guess.

The aroma is nole hops, grass. The appearance is slightly hazy yellow, white head. The flavor is the same, more grassy, som ctrus. The finish is noble hop bittering. Medium in body. Pretty decent actually. Quite sessionable. And it’s a styl you don’t see a lot of.

Draft. Pours clear gold with a white head. Light and clean pale malty aroma with light floral hops. The flavor is clean and crisp, with pale malts, and a light floral hoppy bite. Beyond sessionable.

Draft at the Brewpub with Andrew and Brendan. Pours a clear yellow with soapy white head. Aroma is vanilla and something pretty interesting. Mouthfeel is thin and verges on offensive, but not quite....notes of vanilla, butter, lemon.

At 508 w Andy and James. Color of a pale lager, aroma of honey. A little bit of spice on the palate. A little foul to me - forgettable.

On tap at the brewery. Light brew that’s got an apple juice flavor to it.. Not bad but not deserving amongst top in style.

On tap at the brewpub in New York City. This is one of the best beers I have had in the USA. Pours a light amber pale orange color with off white head. Grassy. creamy and floral hops aroma. Medium carbonation, slightly creamy texture, moderate bitterness. Easy to drink, very nice. Top class beer.
