Commercial Description:
This beer is our speciality. In 1894 Spaten became the first brewery in Munich to produce this brand of light lager. Golden in color with a well-balanced hop-flavor. The full rounded body is a superb balance between hops and a malty sweetness. Also known as Spaten Münchner Hell and is sold under that name in Germany.

Had this on tap at Murphy’s Logo Glass Night in Champaign, Illinois. Poured a vibrant yellow color with a small white head that disappeared quickly. The aroma consisted of grain, some light hops, and grass. The taste was nothing exciting... grainy flavor with a clean finish. I do not think I would have purchased this beer if the logo glass was not a boot-shaped glass. Oh, well... I now have another cool glass to add to my collection!

Tasted somewhere along my trip through the States.
Pale golden colored brew. Crispy and grainy. Not bad, but not special.

Bright, clear yellow with decent white head. Not particularly bubbly/carbonated. Pleasantly hoppy with a nice mouthfeel, but not a distinctive flavor.

This is a fine beer but I dont get the hype. German beer this Belgian beer that. This is a typical lager done perfectly. You can describe this as classical but im standby TYPICAL. American Micro’s blow this out of the water with innovation, imo.

Bottle pours a very clear, medium yellow with an average sized head. Aroma is slightly sweet and malty. Flavor is light, crisp, and refreshing. Not bad at all.
