Pott's Landbier Hell

Tap to rate

Finely malty and gently floral, with fresh, lightly fruity notes from a mild hopping of Tettnang hops. Golden in the glass and soft on the palate, this Helles follows the style of a classic Hell and is brewed bottom-fermented from just water, barley malt and hops. 4.7% ABV and 16 IBU, with water from the brewery's own springs in Oelde.

Golden yellow in the glass with excellent clarity and brightness. A fine, persistent white head forms with good adhesion to the glass walls. Carbonation is lively and even, creating a steady stream of fine bubbles.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with clean, grainy malt sweetness, followed by delicate floral notes characteristic of Tettnang hops. Subtle fruity undertones emerge—hints of stone fruit and green apple—with no aggressive hop character. The overall impression is restrained and refined, inviting without overwhelming.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and malty on the palate, with a bready, grain-forward character that defines the middle. Tettnang hops provide gentle, herbal nobility and a whisper of floral spice rather than assertive bitterness. The finish remains clean and crisp, with moderate bittering that complements rather than dominates.
