Commercial Description:
Saku's oldest beer.
Saku Hele is a light special brew with a strong taste of hops and a pleasant aroma, which has been developed together with Czech master brewers. Saku Hele is brewed according to one of Saku’s oldest recipes in honour of Valerian Baggo, the lord of Saku Manor, who established a truly industrial brewery from the manor’s small brewery.

A yellow beer with a white head. The aroma is of brewmash and corn, while the flavor is sweet and sour both with notes of malt and corn, and also slight notes of metal.

(Bottle 50 cl) Golden with a fairly huge and stable head. Quite hoppy but the hops don’t really that much aroma. Pretty decent beer actually, just completely lacking personality. Exciting back-label in Estonian - I’m completely lost in that language.... 071102

Bottled. Clear yellow, white bubbly head which disappears quickly. Very hoppy aroma with some sweetish hints. Strong malitsh and hoppy taste. A bit dry finish, standard lager and rich carbonation.

Of Saku’s pale beers, this is the fullest and hoppiest one. That said, another Estonian brewery, Sillamae, has a far superior Hele.

Pale lager color. Medium white head, mostly diminishing, some lace. Crisp hoppy, slightly metallic aroma. Malty and a bit fruity taste. Some bitterness in finish. Quite ordinary but drinkable lager.
