Golden yellow just a touch darker than the regular. Good, fine, creamy head. Relatively strong aroma with slightly sweet malt and ok hops as well. Very malty flavor, slightly sweet, with a touch of fruit. Slightly stronger than usual. Medium light body, slight bitter hop finish, but not a strong finish at all. Decent beer, though not really all that exciting, though much richer and otherwise nicer than the bottled helles.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 19, 2009 500ml bottle. Pours a clear, copper colored body with a thin, white head that dissipates quickly and leaves a light lacing. Aroma is malty with a caramel sweetness, some hay, a light toast, and a hint of spice. A somewhat grainy nose with some citrusy lemon notes as well. Flavor is sweet with some slightly watery caramels, grass, a light toast, and some floral fruits towards the end. Finishes lightly hopped after a thinner to medium body. Medium aftertaste of thinner malts and a light fruity grass. Goes down very easy. Overall, not bad, but unexciting. Everything works well together for an uneventful, yet satisfying beer. daniele (1734), Italy

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 13, 2009 Orang-ish hued amber pour with a medium sized head of off white bubbles. Aroma is syrupy caramel sweet malt. The hops are mild yet sharp, and very well balanced to the malt. The carbonation is just about right, the beer is not flat, but does not feel like soda. Pretty good beer here!
