Ottakringer Brauerei AG Helles Bier Helles Lager at 5.2% ABV (Austrian Air Flight OS352, 330 ml, best before 01/16
Pours clear pale gold with one finger of fluffy white head, good retention and moderate lacing. (3/5) Nose is grainy pale malt, faint grassy hops. (4/10) Taste is moderate sweet, mild bitter. (4/10) Light body, moderate carbonation, off-dry mildly bitter finish. (3/5)
A fairly typical Helles – decent enough as a thirst quencher, with a moderately dry and crisp finish. Middle of the road and inoffensive. (10/20)
