Aug 19, 2004 Aromas of grain and grass. Pale, flat yellow in the glass with no head. Unintersting palate -- thin and invisible on the back end. Flavors are also grainy and a little acidic. The hops are hard to find in this helles.

Aug 8, 2004 Pours a golden color with no head. Has a little bit of sweetness in aroma. Tastes of grains. Not too bad, but not much to talk about here.

Jun 8, 2004 Pours clear and golden with a large, foamy white head that lingered decently and left some lacing. Aroma is malty, alfalfa and light hops. More flavorful than I expected, fairly malty with crisp hops, but leaves a vaguely unpleasant astringent finish. Light to medium body and smooth carbonation. Not bad for the style.

May 28, 2004 Didn’t really leave much of an impression on me. Clean and crisp, but very bland.

May 23, 2004 Barely interesting - a light version of a Dortmunder. Some bready malts - thinner. Not much hop presence at all. Serve this with food.

May 12, 2004 On tap at Gordon Biersch, Mission Valley, San Diego. Hazy orange colour, no head and jammy aroma. A full, malty taste, spritzy on the tongue leading to a honey finish. Slightly syruppy mouthfeel. Tasty and crisp, somewhere between a craft ale and German export Lager.
