Britales (56), Cape Charles, Virginia, USA Feb 3, 2004 If you like a maltier Helles then this is your baby! Nice pillowy head, deep gold color and packed with malt! The more Helles that you drink the more you are able to pick up the subtle differences in each brewery's offerings! This Edel however is not very subtle it is big and creamy! tastes great on draught but 3-4 glasses will put a sway in your step, take it gently! you won't find many quite like this !!
bb (2236), Martinez, California, USA Oct 24, 2008 Bottle. Pale straw color with a nice white head. Low malt aroma with a bit of spice. Malty, slightly sweet flavor with a bit of spice. Medium body. Spice lingers with decent malt backing. Quack-Duck (1976), Bodensee, Germany Oct 7, 2008 previously tested on German BTO 02/2007: Schöne Farbe, aber nicht soo viel Schaum. Malzig-süßlich, dazu kommt ein herber Nachgeschmack. Das wäre schön und gut, aber dabei ist auch ein ganz eigenartiger Geschmack, der mich an Plastik erinnert, und etwas störend wirkt. Insgesamt OK, wird aber bei Gelegenheit nachgetestet, das gehört wohl nicht so. Enniskillen (1624), Port Angeles, Washington, USA Oct 5, 2008 Fold with a nice white head. Aroma is malty, with a light tea like sweetness, corn. Taste is lightly malty, corn, honey. yespr (7785), Copenhagen O, Denmark Sep 14, 2008 50 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow with a lacing bubbly and white head. Spiced and mild fruity hops aroma. Flavour starts sweet fruity and mild cornish. Light caramel malt note. Smooth finish with a mix of caramel and light fruity accents.
