3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Colored a pale golden... one finger foamy head. Aromas are sweet malt and some light grass. Flavor is fairly similar. Malt body is bold, sweet and grainy. Somehow it seems like this has a higher ABV than 5%, but I’m not sure why... maybe the heavy body with the sweetness???

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Sample from 12 ounce bottle at the Mondial, Montreal (May 2007). Bright gold with quite a bit of head retained, some fine lacing....very, very frash grassy-sharp aroma, lightly perfumy and floral, pungent with earthy noble hops....beautifully constructed grainy-malty body, compulsively drinkable, with just enough sharp pungent hops at the finish to give it the perfect dry, sharp bite....an excellent helles, comparable to the great Montreal examples also on display at this Mondial.

Clear, straw body with a small white head. The aroma is grainy bread, grass and light lemon. The flavor is lightly sweet, honey, bread and herbal. Medium/light body is softly carbonated and round. Decent.
