0.5 l bottle. Pours orange-yellow with a huge rocky white head with circling floaties in slight overcarbonation. Yeasty malty aroma. Malty simple flavor. Very clean. Full mouth feel. Easy to drink, for sure.

Hazy golden orange with some suspended particles with a monster creamy and firm beige head. Spicy Hallertau hops with some bready malts. Incredibly delicate, yet very fulfilling. Light bodied, very crisp. A major statement in being understated. An awesome lager, I love this brewery.

Lovely, bright golden color, with a generous helping of snowy foam. Aroma: soft, floral, perfumey, with a tiny touch of sweetness and spice, quite nice. And then, even sweeter and smoother on the lips. Hops have a delightful impact on the tastebuds, lemony, honeyish, and yummy! Light-bodied, but full-flavored. Goodness, it gets better. Starts good, then never stops. Terrifically balanced, well-rounded, a great lager.

(Bottle) Pours a lightly cloudy golden body with an enormous frothy off-white head. Long lasting head retention and considerable carbonation. Malty aroma. Crisp, clean, and refreshing Helles. Enjoyable!

This is a beer that just walks up and says "drink me". Rather than linger over it, I just pick up the glass and have another swig. This is (to me) the highest compliment for a lager. The pour is a beautiful dark golden amber with a substantial head. Aroma is very subdued, with a little grass and ester, often associated with wheat. The flavor is malty and rich with the lingering taste of milk on the tongue. Very natural, very good.

Orange-amber body with lots of suspended yeast dust. Explosively large white head that diminishes down to a thin sheet of white bubbles. The aroma has biscuit dough with a sharpness that reminds me of a touch too much baking soda, although it’s likely just some spicy saaz-like hops. I’ll quote a BMC beer ad and pronounce the flavor and mouthfeel to be "smooth and easy-drinking". The malts are very subdued, carrying gentle bread/biscuit flavors. The most prominent part of the flavor is the spicy hops, they’re of the grassy/floral variety. The dry finish leaves grassy hop notes with a light dried fig sweetness. The mouthfeel suffers a bit because of what I think is overzealous carbonation that tingles the tongue too much. Otherwise a well-made and enjoyable beer. I bet this stuff kicks ass when fresh

On first pour it is a nice clear gold yellow color with a good sized white fluffy head. COnsecutive pours from the same .5 liter bottle come out slightly cloudy with less head. Smell is of pilsner malt, and slight hoppiness with a charachteristic lager smell. Flavor is sweet yet balanced with malt and the palate is so damn smooth. I can see why this is the best rated Helles in the world. Fantastic brew.

500 ml bottle. Luminous, shiny gold, with a light, fluffy, gigantic taupe head. Nose is fresh honey-oat bread, light yeast and light lemon, and is astoundingly wonderful. Extremely smooth and quaffable, the initial honey-sweet flavor is for me just a little light and boring, but this and a light fresh hoppiness get vastly more pronounced at the finish, which is extremely crisp, dry and full of invisible fresh Hallertauer that lingers and just spreads throughout your upper body. A very subtle, refined, remarkable beer, I can only echo others’ sentiments and wonder what it must be like to live in a place like Wolnzach and drink this from the tap every day?
