| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 20, 2009 (bottle) Clear, pale golden colour with a mid-sized foamy white head. Slightly sweet and strawy pale malty nose with a delicate touch of herbal hops. Sweet and slightly bitter flavour; slightly grainy, malt-accented taste with a shy herbal background, well-matured and crispy carbonated mouthfeel with a light body; sweet bitter malty finish with a tinge of hoppy bitterness. A bit boring Helles without any flaws, just clean and refreshing (20.II.09).
