Hacker-Pschorr Münchener Gold

Brewed by Paulaner Brauerei (Schörghuber)
Style: Dortmunder/Helles
Munich, Germany

clear golden/green/brass, thin whispy head. nose; sour dough, very tart, some sweet floral notes. bad mouthfeel-feels like its chock full of sediment, but it aint. average lager taste with a slight bit more sweetness and hop undertones. meh.

Bottled. Compact and adherent head, discreet resistance. Shining yellow color, much limpid one and with good bubbly aspect. Rather lean aroma, but with pleasant herbaceous and cereals notes. Bitterish taste, balanced, refreshing, much simple but altogether pleasant and moderated.

12oz. Bottle: Aroma of light noble hops, pale malts, and a hint of honey. Poured yellow/gold in color with a small to medium-sized, white head that diminished but lasted throughout. Clear. Lightly sparkling. Flavor is lightly sweet. Tastes of noble hops, grains, pale malts, light bread, and a hint of honey. Light to medium body. Slightly dry texture. Average carbonation. Lightly sweet, slight noble hop, grain, and bread finish is lightly dry.

Dumped out into glass. Produced a massive fluffy white cap (twice!). Interesting thing here - I m watching it shrink.... maybe it’s another flashback. Medium gold brew, lots of bubbles. The aroma is average and expected: lots of sweet grains, dull macintosh apples (no peel) and ample hops. Well rounded. The taste is quite grassy with a lot of hops and a slight tartness. Quiet clean tasting. Nice soft carb, surprisingly meaty middle, hops throughout make this very enjoyable for a boring beer. Slight sourness throughout with notable bitterness being a constant. Meh.

500 ml bottle, unexpected find at TBS, served cold in a tulip glass.

App.: Clear gold with a decent white head. Aroma: Pleasant cereal/grain with some light citrus fruitiness, a little biscuit, a touch of hay and grass. Palate: Medium body, fairly full effervescence. Flav.: Similar to the nose, some honey, lightly floral, still a good amount of grain/cereal, light biscuit; dry with a little bitterness.

A very tasty quaffer.

Had US Version Munich Gold. Overall a nice beer, easy drinking with a good balance of malt sweetness, and mild hop bitterness as you would expect from a Munich Helles. However nothing special here, that flavors are pretty standard for german lagers, not much different then the mass market German imports (i.e., Becks). I might keep some in the fridge for after mowing the lawn.

Bottle from TBS- A sparkling deep gold, pours a frothy and sticky white cap. Biscuity nose has hay, lemon, some cookie dough. Sweet biscuit malt with lemon, grassy hops, somewhat fruity. Nice carbonation leaves beer with a creamy feel. A good session Helles for the summer.

Bottled. A golden beer with a white head. The aroma has notes of straw, and the flavor is sweet with notes of malt and straw, leading to a bitter strawy finish. Thanks yespr for sharing.
