500 ml. swing- yop bottle. Hazy golden colour, pours a medium head that dissipates soon, leaving a small ring. Taste of grains and citrus, herb. Crispy palate, medium body. Taste of grain, citrus and fruits, with a sour finish. Drinkable, but nothing special.

500 ml bottle, dated best by 31.07.24

Pours a clear light golden color, thick white head. decent head retention, but it eventually fades to a thin collar around the glass. mild grainy aroma, a little grassy too. taste is similar, slightly sweet but fairly clean flavor. thin to medium bodied.

Pours mid to dark amber. Subtle enough on the nose. Definite hops, yeast, citrus and a little spice. Nice malty taste, a little sweetness. Fresh and enjoyable if not massively memorable.

2015: Shared 500 ml bottle at local tasting, from CITTI-Markt Flensburg. BB date 06.06.2014. Pale golden colour, moderate white head. Moderate floral aroma. The flavour is slightly citrussy and refreshing, medium dry and crisp. Decent hops in the finish.

Hazy dark gold with steady white band; honey + bread dough nose; sweet malt, grainy mild, hint of lemon, cut grass; round.

4 4 3.75 3.75 3.5

A bit sweet + chewy for a Helles; putting me in the mind of a maibock. Either needs more carb or more hops, which are low even for the style. More MOR stuff from Hoss.

Pours a clear pale golden color with a small top of white head that dissolves quickly. Aroma is of bread, biscuits, grass, grains, honey and herbal hops.
The taste is sweet and with some bread and light cracker notes in the back. It then finishes of with some grassy and herbal notes and some slight bitter tones. Mouthfeel is crisp and clean with a medium carbonation and medium body.
Nothing super exiting with it , but enjoyable and refreshing on a hot day.

This is a medium yellow, clear beer that pours easily, small head with big bubbles that fades slowly. The smell was heavy of grape and plum, a bit like wine but sweeter. The taste is a like honey, malts, hops and a bit of grape. Very faint hops. Light to medium body, moderate carbonation, and very easy to drink. Good! Perfect for a casual, sunny, laid-back afternoon of beer.

Good mid-range beer. Some character and nuance on taste.

Hyvä keskitason olut. Maussa on luonnetta ja vähäistä vivahdetta.

This helles has a bit of an edge, a sharp hoppy bitterness. Pours clear golden with short foamy head. Sparse carbonation. Aroma is malt and a touch of citrus. Taste is crackers, sourdough, hops and lemon. After working all day on a hot day, this tastes pretty darn good.

500ml brown glass bottle purchased at a Maxima hypermarket in Vilnius, Lithuania.

Somewhat honeyed, with an unremarkable light malt backbone and generic hopping.

Drinkable albeit forgettable schlock.
