The nose smells of green melon and grapefruit with hints of lemon zest. On the palate there is more exotic fruits and a touch of honey. Slightly sweet and malty. The bitterness is huge in this, making it seem less like a helles and more like an IPA. It is unfiltered, so has a fuller body but not overwhelming. Due to the bitterness I wouldn’t rank this highly as a helles.

Review: 33cl brown bottle of Wolfscraft, Das Helle! : 4.9% vol.
Nice brown bottle with a very cool pic of a blue wolf, its logo. Really catches the eye.
On the pour I get a yellowish golden looking beer with a decent sized white head. A good bit of carbonation, fairly lively. Head maintains well, small but hangs around. Looks good, nice and sparkling.
The aroma is all nice and fruity, very nice on the nose, albeit a little light, which is a shame. Getting exotic fruits, regular citrus and the hops.
Onto the taste, getting hit with the hops straight off the bat, very bitter, bit off on the taste buds.
But it manages to settle down and after a while the taste improves, eventually getting nice big mouthfuls, nice and crisp. Exotic fruits, the malts and grains present, but all the flavours are quite light, it's really all about the hops.
One to sip slowly, a slow burner, not smooth as the bitter aftertaste would see to that.
Not going to set the world alight, a little dull it has to be said and there are far better Helles out there for sure. Ok to relax with and nice enough to drink if no good alternative, but largely forgetful.

Pours a pale, golden color with a froth, big head.
Smells very intriguingly of wheat, hay, whole grain bread and slightly tropical, orange focussed hops. Smells like a well made Helles with a big plus, due to its recognizable hop presence.
Drinks amazingly easy, effervescent and refreshing, with a nice depth of flavors, continuing the positive impression from the nose.
Tastes of wheat, sunshine, crackers, toffee malts and a well interweaved aqeous softness. A herbal hop note unfolds during midpalate, bringing orange zest and lime to the palate as well. Finishes more hop forward than malty, with its initial aqueous softness.
Very nice interpretation, showing how great a Helles can taste. More nutty, soft and herbal than a pale.
