3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
A run of the mill helles pleasant appearance, refreshing taste but nothing outstanding. This is compared with other brews from Germany.It is only when you compare it with an average euro-fizz produced in other parts of Europe that you realise the consistently high standards of German brewers.

2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle at Polpo Mato. Another disappointing German beer. Straw yellow pour with a big white head. All kinds of yeast settlement at the bottom of the bottle. Florally/citrusy aromas. Some lemon, floral, and cereal notes. Thin, bland, and unimpressive.

Sorry for the german rating, but this is a lousy rating from my "newbie" time (2007-2009), and it’s not worth of being translated. I just added it for the statistics, and to complete my backlog!
Beim Geruchstest dominieren malzige Töne. Der Antrunk ist Lagertypisch sehr malzig und feinwürzig, leicht gehopft. Zudem ist es sehr süffig und kommt fast ein wenig mild daher. Lässt sich wirklich angenehm trinken.

(Flasche) Es hat eine goldgelbe Farbe, ist klar filtriert und hat eine weiße Schaumkrone. Das Aroma ist leicht süßlich und geht stark Richtung Heu oder DMS. Der Geschmack ist genau so, nur ein bisschen mehr Heu. Bittere ist kaum vorhanden. Die Karbonisierung ist durchschnittlich. Zusammengefasst ein eher unbedeutendes Helles.

UPDATED: MAR 5, 2012 Bottle from systembolaget. Nice golden colour with a white head. Light hoppy aroma og medium malty taste. Not that normal good round mouth feeling from dortmunder lager beers. Ok carbonation.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
On tap at the Yardbird, Birmingham. I was looking forward to a bit of unexpurgated German helles pleasure..... but this wasn’t great. Too creamy, a hint too corny and a little warmly sweet. Thick and sickly in the mouth. Didn’t cut through my thirst.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap at a little hole-in-the-wall sandwhich place we stumbled into on our way back from the Oktoberfest grounds on day 2. We had brought bottles up to the till from the cooler and the guy made us put them back so he could pour us "a real beer". Light clear golden with a clingy white crown. I didn’t make notes on the aroma (I must have been hungry, or hammered, or both). Flavours were nice: soft bready malts with a citrus note in the finish. Apparently I liked it.
