Well-balanced, slightly hoppy, slightly malty and some hints of grain and bread. yespr (6167), Copenhagen O, Denmark Nov 20, 2007 50 cL bottle. Pours pale yellow with a lacing white head. Fresh hoppy aroma with a mild whiff of malt. Flavour is slight cardboardish with a mild and rye malt aroma. Mild sweetness blending in with the slight bitterness. Hildigöltur (5051), København Ø, Denmark Nov 14, 2007 Bottled. Golden coloured. Malty and bready aroma. Sweetish malty and grainy flavour. Very soft and bready. pivnizub (3779), Porúří, Germany Jan 27, 2007 Screw-cap bottle: Golden coloured, lively carbonation, creamy, lacing white head; delicate sweet-malty to grainy nose with a faint bitter touch; faint bitter-sweet flavour, light bodied; finish is - you guessed it - mild bitter and sweet. A bit bland, but not bad at all........ MoritzF (3690), Ruhrpott, Germany Nov 4, 2006 (bottle, from pivnizub - thanks !) Clear, pale golden with a short creamy white layer. Light sweet malty, minimal toasted aroma with a honey-fruity touch. Moderately sweet flavour, light bodied, smooth carbonation. Pretty one-dimensional malt-accented taste with a light bitter finish. Mediocre but clean and drinkable Helles.
