The flavor is sweet malty with notes of a good aroma hop (especially in the beginning) and grain. Papsoe (14642), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jun 13, 2005 (Bottle 50 cl) Beautiful pale golden with a very small head. Malty nose, malty flavour with some underlying sweetness. Discreet but far from absent hops in the finish. Very typical Helles. 100605 yespr (11645), Copenhagen O, Denmark Aug 7, 2008 50 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow with a huge white head.

Mild spiced hops and light malt finish. oh6gdx (8798), Vasa, Finland Mar 6, 2009 Bottled (from beerangel.de). Golden colour with small white bubbly head. Aroma is bready and grassy along with some slight notes of parfume. Flavour is grass, saltwater, some sweet malts and the finish is quite hayish. Refreshing, but not that exciting. MiP (8793), Sønderborg, Denmark Feb 11, 2007 Bottle, 5.1%. Acidic/sour aroma. Clear yellow colour, unstable white head. The flavour is mild, malty and slightly acidic. Low bitterness. Not too exciting, but clean. Oakes (8057), gone rambling, Vietnam Oct 12, 2002 Gold; mild pale malts; light finish; german hops take the background, but overall lacks complexity. argo0 (6861), Washington DC, USA Nov 28, 2004 Clear apple juice body with large white head. Aroma is medium sweet, apple, cookie dough, light tinny. Taste is medium sweet, apple, cookie dough, light grassy/herbal. Watery light body, light carbonation. Nothing special about this one. TBone (6675), Pori, Finland Jun 5, 2009 Bottled (Beerangel, BB 01/2010).
Golden color, small steady white head. Aroma of lemon, grass, straw, honey and cardboard. Medium-bodied. Sweetish malty backbone. Herbal vibe in grassy hops. Very clean and smooth. Not exiciting but as always, Weihenstephaner excels in German beer styles.
