From the small can, it pours a clear light yellow color with a modest white head that diminishes to a thin layer and light ring. The nose gets a bit of grassy hops and light malt. The mouth follows with a slightly spicy lightly malty brew that is easy to enjoy.

Trent 18/7 2025. 50 cl bottle from Edeka, Mühlenstraße, Gingst. White label withal light blue drawing og a Mountain goat.

Pours clear yellow with a big white head. Stable. Settles as a paper thin layer of foam just covering the surface of the beer. Substantial lacing.

Aroma is medium intense with a sweet and malty odor mingling with a light sourish scent. Sweet pale malts, bread and cereal. Wholesome and malty.

Light carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, lightly tingling texture.

Flavor is medium intense with a medium strong sweetness followed by a moderately strong sourish bitterness. Aftertaste is lightly bitter with a sweet undertone. Lingers for a bit. Finish is semi-dry.

Solid malty and bready Helles. Almost a meal.

A simple, well-made, traditional hell, with bread-like taste and nice feel. Nothing more to ask.

Warsteiner Group trying to stab into the recent "Helles" Beer Trend.
The Label is a very generic "Bavarian-looking" Label.
The Beer is brewed at their "König Ludwig" facility but claims to be brewed at Holzkirchen (which has a defunct Brewery).
The Beer itself is a fairly generic Helles, not bad, not particularly good.
