| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 1, 2009 Sampled on draught during Great Taste of Midwest 2009 in Madison Wisconsin. Pours a semi-clear golden yellow colored brew with a thin white head that quickly dissipates to a thin white ring. Aroma of golden grain malt, some light fruit, pears, citrus zest and a touch of peach. Taste is light to medium bodied, some carbonation with flavors of golden grain malt with some citrus zest-like hops, a touch of pear and some light lemon. Finish is a little gritty but has a nice golden grain with a hint of citrus aftertaste. A solid Helles Lager overall. vyvvy (2068), Hazelwood, Missouri, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 14, 2009 Pours hazy yellow with a white head - I don’t think any filtering happened with this one. The aroma has pale malt, light creaminess and light fruit (pear?). Medium body that’s smooth and creamy for the style. The taste starts off with pale malt, nectar fruit, graininess, slightly creamy and very lagered taste. The finish has slightly more fruitiness and some spiciness. A good helles.

Flavor and aroma were grainy and malty. A bit of fruit. Refreshing and easy to drink. wxman (588), O’Fallon, Illinois, USA

Pours an extemely pale cloudy yellow, almost white. Taste is refreshing, but with very little flavor notes. Some citrus and bread dough. Well balanced and a great lawn mower/session, but not much flavor.
