Dec 26, 2008 Bottle from Tesco. Clear gold with thin white head. Malty aroma with a very slight citrus edge. Deep malty taste with hints of lemon and a dry finish. Rounded palate, yet at the same time it’s slightly thin. Easy to drink but nothing special.

Dec 20, 2008 500 ml bottle in Germany. Tastes better in Germany as I have seen. Clear yellow with white head. A good Hellles. Smooth and creamy. A bit watery for a great rating. A good standard to judge other helles by. There are better and worse.

Dec 3, 2008 Pour: Pale yellow gold, with a 1-2 finger frothy white head that fades to a skim in a couple minutes, but has good retention at that point and leaves specks of lacing.
Aroma: Straw, grassy hops, sweet grainy malts, white bread crust toastiness.
Flavor: Lots of grainy malts, faint lemony and floral hops, decent grassy hops, sweet grainy malts.
Finish is low on bitterness, grassy hops linger with a vague maltiness.
Body: Thin and watery, carbonation is about right.
