Bottle, bought at the brewery. Malty aroma and flavor with boiled milk. Some late hoppiness, orange. Unexciting helles, but better as you might expect at first.

It’s golden with a creamy, white head and the aroma has notes of malt, bread and flower. The flavor is moderately sweet with notes like the aroma, and the finish is slightly dry. It’s a bit boring compared with many other helles.

Bottle: Golden, visible carbonation, small foamy layer, dusty-strawy-grainy nose; light sweetish-bitter flavour, light bodied as well; a slight fruitiness with a non-infection acidity shows up in the more chewy sweetish-grainy finish, followed by a low bitterness. Archetypal Helles from the Lower Bavarian badlands.…

(bottle) Clear, golden colour with a blond medium-sized foamy head. Shy grainy (cara-)malty aroma with a tinge of onions and metallic hops. Moderately sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with a soft carbonation. Present malt-character with noticeable herbal hops, especially towards the dry-ish finish, but unfortunately with a nasty metallic tail, which fades away after a few sips. Most probably much better on tap. 30.X.11
