Weihenstephaner Original


I picked this, and 2 other half litre Bavarian beers a few days ago. I figured Id give the weihenstephaner helles lager a try since it was the highest rated helles on beer advocate(of course... BA also rates their weisse the best as well, which I disagree with)

first impressions: nice translucent pale color, smells slightly sweet, but not in a hoppy way.


taste: delicious. a bit of a bite at the start, turning smooth and malty, with no aftertaste.


overall : great. I have to agree with BA. This is possibly the best helles lager Ive had. Its definitly the best Ive had outside of a Munich beer hall. It tastes smooth and is delicious. I just with I had a bratwurst or pretzel to go with it
