Pours straw coloured with a medium bubbly head. Aroma is lightly roasted malt with a touch of grassiness. Taste is all malt up front with a nice hop bitterness to finish. Very refreshing and very drinkable

This bottled brew poured a medium sized head of frothy fine to large sized mostly lasting white colored bubbles that left behind an unnoted lacing. The body contained soft carbonation, was hazy with yeast floaties and orange brown in color. Its aroma contained notes of smooth yeasty bready and was nice. Its mouth feel is initially slightly tingly smooth with a lingering mellow palate and a bready aftertaste. Its flavor contained smooth malt hop yeast notes and was very tasty. An excellent beer that I would buy again.

UPDATED: NOV 22, 2004 Pours perfect straw golden with a nice white head that leaves moderate lacing. Aroma is slightly wheaty and has a good light maltiness to it with a slight floral hop backing. Taste is very clean and well rounded. Light malty start with a nice hop bitterness toward the end which brings a nice balance to this beer. Very smooth and drinkable. Nice subtle brew that is a great summer day brew.

Yellow-orange with a creamy-smooth texture. Citric in character, and almost wheaty, like the illegitimate offspring of a hefeweizen and pilsner.

Pours a huge, billowy pure whirte head that lasts a long time, just as it should for this style. Citrusy aromoa. Smooth, mellow, delicaye. Finishes just crisp enough. I really likedthis beer.

UPDATED: JUL 24, 2004 (RBSG04) Clear apple juice body with white head. Aroma is medium sweet, bready, light herbal. Taste is mild sweet, bready, herbal/grassy. Medium body. Quite drinkable.

Bottle. Poured pale yellow gold with a sudsy white head. Floral aroma with hoppy and grassy notes. Balanced mild flavour with hoppiness. Balanced finish. Lekker Bavarian Helles.

Bottle. Huge, beautiful grassy-floral aroma with lots of malt. Yellow-golden body with a big creamy white head - sudsy. Lightly bitter, big floral taste, mildly crisp with slight Czechish notes. Light enough body for quaffing with medium-full effect from the malt bonanza. Beautiful, well-made, classic Bavarian Helles.

NIcely done, this is right on par with what I was hoping for. Sweet cream butter pasted over a fresh piece of sweet bread. Richly malty, with a bit of bitter spicy hops in the background.

Bottle. Medium sized white head that was mostly diminishing, fine-medium sized bubbles, yeasty, hazy, no visible carbonation, and a yellow golden hue. The aroma was malty, caramel, sweet, and a hint of spicyness. Flavor was sweet, lightly bitter and malty. Quite tasty. Tingly palate. Worth a try IMO.
