3.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20Location/Date:Bottle on October 27th, 2012.
Appearance: Pours a clear gold.
Aroma: Aroma is nice amount of smoke, not overbearing.
Taste: Light smoke, very light bitterness, bready malt.
Palate:Light body, light aftertaste.
Summary: My fifth rating of Brauerei Heller. I enjoyed this one, but not as much as the other versions they make. Might be a good first beer from them if nervous about smokey aroma/flavor as it’s quite light. Just had to try this one, hope to finish out the brewery at some point.

4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours crystal clear pale yellow with a small white head. The nose is by far the weakest smelling as far as their line of smoke goes but that said it still has a very pleasant smoked meat and cheese element, a higher degree of fruity smells and some light grass or straw. The flavor is pure elegance as far as a lager goes. So crisp up front but mellows out into a nice smooth soft finish that is long as hell. The body is light. Very tasty, very refreshing.
