2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 chriso (7254) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - DEC 20, 2006
On draught at The Old Monk, Westminster. Bright golden colour, with insistent carbonation. Mainly grainy, bready malt in the aroma. Not much hop presence in the flavour - just a hint of grassiness. Distinctly sweet on the palate and without sufficient bite to prevent this becoming flabby. Not too impressed.

Draught. I don’t know, i kinda liked it, but thats not saying much after some pretty bad helles beers before it. This was malty, with a light sweetness, some nice breadyness, with touches of grassy hops.

Got this one bottled at the Binny’s Oktoberfest in St. Charles, Illinois. Light yellow pour with a thick, white head. Wonderfully sweet aroma with bread and some lemongrass. Doesn’t look like much but it has an outstanding flavor, lightly citrusy and sweet. Finishes very clean. Excellent.
