Frastanzer Helles

◎ Aussehen

Pours a pale gold with excellent clarity and a fine white head that settles to a thin, persistent collar. The carbonation is visible and lively, creating a bright, inviting appearance characteristic of a well-made Helles. The fine beading and clean presentation speak to careful brewing and conditioning.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with soft pale malt and subtle grain notes, creating a clean, cereal-like foundation. A delicate citrus note emerges in the background, adding brightness without dominating. Noble hop character is restrained but present, supporting the grain-driven profile with understated elegance.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is light and refreshing, with a lightly malty sweetness that develops quickly into a crisp, spicy hop bitterness. The mid-palate reveals more pronounced bitterness than the modest 4.3% ABV might suggest, with a mineral, dry character balanced against the soft malt base. The finish is clean and herbaceous, leaving a pleasant spicy bite.

◑ Abgang

The finish is short to medium, with a lingering dry spice and a whisper of herbal hop character. The aftertaste is clean and refreshing, with no cloying sweetness, inviting another sip.
