A solid helles from Germany...
I am trying out some German brews this year ahead of my trip I hope to take. This is one to keep an eye out for as it was definitely visually appealing, smelled to style, and was fully a delicious brew.

From the 16 oz can in a snifter. This decent little quencher pours a
chill hazed pale amber with a moderate head of white foam that settles
to a thick ring, thin dusty layer, and sports some light lacing. Nose of
grains, honey sweet malt, and faint herbal hops. Flavors follow the nose with
grain, honey, light caramel, and grassy/herbal hop notes. Mouth feel is
medium light, light carbonation, smooth, crisp, and finishing with a grain
and hop note on the rear of the taste.
Overall, nice to try a new German brew.
Cheers

I got a can of this beer from the 2023 Costco Beer advent calendar pack as the December 5th offering. It poured a clear golden with thin white ring head that is not leaving any lace. The scent had grain notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with crisp malt base with grain presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a good beer.

Day 5 of the 2023 Costco Beer Advent Calendar. Poured from a can into a pint glass. Pours yellow orange with a small white head. Smells of sweet grain, not much else. Tastes of sweet grain with some slight fruit notes. Beer is light bodied and easy drinking, good carbonation. Overall, a very good beer.
