A golden lager in the traditional Munich brewing style. This is what you find on tap in Bavaria instead of a Pilsener. With more malt character and less hop bitterness than a pilsener, our Helles is full flavored but crisp. Slightly lighter bodied than our Seven Sisters M?r

"Color is rich amber, like the typical American lager but with a depth such brews lack. Smell is strong and invitingly beery. Taste is very good, with no bitterness and just a whisper of sweetness. It feels as smooth as the proverbial silk and goes right down easily. A good starter beer!"

"Draft at the Sandy Springs location, poured a light golden color, nice thin head, retention, and lacing. The aroma was honey, biscuits, grains. The flavor was much of the same, nothing really fancy. Mouthfeel was fairly crisp and clean with a light lingering maltiness with a touch of grass."

"Surprisingly big crisp malt. I wasn't expecting something quite this tasty. Light citrusy hops add a little bitterness and make this an extremely refreshing brew without resorting to cheap brewing tricks."

[4] Review by staleyiv from Newnan, GA, USA who has tried this beer once. (10/5/2005 6:05:09 PM)
"This is my first 5 Seasons brew and the first to kick off my birthday celebration. The aroma is malty and bready-like as well as a bit winey with some sweetness coming through and maybe a little bitter as well. The appearance is a light-brown with some amber hues with a nice head on top that diminishes leaving bubbly, white lacing. The mouthfeel is light-bodied with nice malty complexity with nice balance as well with a pallet that is smooth and coats well and is wet-like. The flavor is of sweet malt with some bready characteristics that is smooth and refreshing with a crisp aftertaste that is malty and bitter with a finish that is nice and smooth, as well as refreshing. Overall, this is a nice munich style with nice malty complexity with a refreshing, smooth finish."

"A golden appearance with a large head. A crisp grassy and lemon flavor. A very herbal citrus aroma. Pretty standard stuff really. Good for hot weather but these guys do alot better.
