Similar noble hop in the flavour, grass and straw over a pale malt base. (6+) Pretty decent example of the style, but not to my taste.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jun 11, 2008 From 0.5L bottle purchased locally. Aroma is grainy and a slight hint of floral, spicy hops. Color is a straw yellow that is crystal clear with a half inch fluffy white head. Flavor is malty, bready and delicate. A little bitterness, but only to balance. Light, refreshing, smooth and a clean, dry finish. A classic of the Helles style. pojo41 (315), Hattiesburg, Mississippi, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 7, 2008 Bottle. Poured a brilliant straw color. Nice fluffy white head that dissipated rather quickly. Clean aroma of malt.
Clean, crisp malt flavor with just enough hop bitterness to balance things out. A good clean German lager suitable for everyday drinking. zappafan99 (462), South Carolina, USA

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 26, 2008 Not an overly interesting beer. A distinctive german taste but many better. Would not purchase again. Muggus69 (538), Sydney, Australia
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 24, 2008 500ml bottle, BB 12.09.08, served chilled. Clean pale gold body, fluffy white head. Not much to the nose, some cereal malt and light herbaceous hops. Reasonably low carbonation, particularly for a lager, decent body with a firm malt texture. Body has quite a good malt sweetness, honey, slightly biscuity, balanced by a leafy hop bitterness, finishing abruptly and bone dry. Quite non-offensive, one of the better German Helles i’ve tried. dalepryor (172), Paducah, Kentucky, USA
