2.1 Goldgelb und mit einer Peinlichkeit von Blume ausgestattet steht dieser Ausflug der Benediktiner ins Reich der Untergärigen vor mir. Es duftet angenehm getreidig mit einer dezenten Malzsüße, auch Anklänge an Honig sind zu verzeichnen. Der Antrunk geht mild und mit einer dezenten Süße behaftet über die Bühne. Von Beginn nervt die penetrante und auch etwas harte Kohlensäure. Eine sehr schwache, kaum erwähnenswerte Hopfenherbe macht keine großen Sprünge. Auch der fade, schwach metallische Abgang vermag dem Benedektiner kein Leben einzuhauchen. Letztlich ein fades, kohlensäurelastiges, dünnmalziges und viel zu vage gehopftes Helle, welches überhaupt nicht dazu in der Lage ist, mein Interesse zu wecken.

2.6 Pours golden and clear with a pronounced white top, which dissipates quickly. Aroma very pleasant malt, bread and sweet notes present, hoppy at the back of the nose. Taste is very gentle and fresh. Low bitterness and a crisp, dry dinish. Very light body with very limited carbonation. A very nice beer

2.6 Bottled (from Alko Prisma, Vaasa). Yellow colour with a small white head. Aroma is bread, some mild sweetness as well as some herbs and mild grass to it. Flavour is grassy, herbal, earthy some mild sweetness with mild bready notes.

3.7 Into a handle, chilled. Bright, yellow gold body with a little life evident rising to a soapy, soppy mess of white atop. Grainy nose, mildly sweet, biscuity and cereal-like with a sundrenched malt and floral hop character. Rather soft on the palate. Nice malt backbone similar to the nose with a sharp, mildly bitter, peppery and floral hop finish. Dry for the most. Cereal-like and predominately grainy front. Light bodied, but well rounded. Moderate to light carbonation. Well balanced, clean and easy quaffing. A nice, light Helles. (BB 22/06,2023, 1st Choice Liquor, Riverton)

4.0 Poprawny lager, niepusty, z wyraźną goryczką. Lekko kwaskowy.

3.2 Can

3.1 Das Benediktiner Hell kommt in seinem klaren Goldgelb mit feinporiger Schaumkrone und brotigem Geruch im guten Standard eines Hellen daher. Der Antrunk ist auch brotig und der Abgang leicht gehopft. Reißt mich nicht vom Hocker, kann man aber zur Brotzeit oder bei hohen Temperaturen gut trinken 07-2019

3.6 Uma weissbier com sabor mediano. Pior que a original. A não repetir.

2.7 Esta é uma cerveja de cor dourada clara e translúcida. Cerveja pouco ou nada lupulada. Cerveja com gás q.b., típica lager

2.7 Appearance: Very pale golden, crystal clear. Small, white head. Aroma: Grains, grass. Some pale malt. Taste: More grains, very pale malt. Grass. Thin. Bought: Marktkauf (Weil am Rhein), 330 ml, €1.07 Info: 14/10-2022, BB: 2/12-2022

3.0 On tap at the Llandoger Trow, Bristol 29/9/2022. Deep gold in colour, with a tight white, head. Aroma of ripe malts and hay. Flavours of full and slightly bread malts with a touch of corn in the background, before a moderately bitter, finish. Ok.

2.6 Malty cereal with a little caramel sweetness, but a bit skunky and a thin hops through the finish.

2.5 Can from Metro. Clear yellow straw, not a lot of head or lacing. Plenty of rising carbonation. Still some floral hops on the nose and in the mouth with fairly straightforward grain and bread malts underneath. Mid bitter finish. Not very hellish or complex, but refreshing.

2.2 "Benediktiner Hell", Fläschchen von Edeka, Berlin. - Goldgelb, blank. - In der Nase nur mildes helles Malz und kaum aromatische, zart muffige Hopfung; selbst für ein Helles recht enttäuschend. - Antrunk blaß hellmalzig und zart säuerlich-malzsüß mit matter zitrusfruchtig-herbaler Hopfung. Gut rezent, wäßrig. Zart muffig-chloriger Nachtrunk. - Erinnert stark an die sonstige Plörre, die in Lich zusammengewürgt wird. Verzichtbar. (6.9.2022.)

2.8 Goudkleurig bier met schuim. Smaak is licht bitter hoppig met iets van hooien graan. Duidelijk iets minder "zoet" dan vergelijkbare bieren.

3.5 Can shared by John, thanks! Pours a clear straw yellow with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has light straw and grains with a hint of earthy grass underlying. Flavor lots of straw and hay with a hint of grass backing.

3.2 33cl Fles bij Hotel Forsthaus, Volkesfeld. Heldergouden kleur, witte kraag. Redelijk zoet, moutig, honing, licht grassig, licht bitter. Zacht mondgevoel. Slobbert lekker weg.

3.4 --Sample, thanks oh6gdx! -- Hazy golden, small head. Fruity, bready nose with mild floral notes. Sweetish with light to medium body and well rounded mouthfeel. Fruity, bready malt dominates. Mild floral hops. Fairly low bitterness. Almost Australien style helles.

3.0 Classic Bavarian helles, ice cold from the 03 bottle. Not too overwhelming malty stinky what Other Bavarian helles are like mostly. The watery Finish still makes it more comfortable and a bit lighter.
