Synopsis

First created in Munich in 1894, Helles is perhaps the most delicate beer imaginable, and must rely on its incredible subtlety to please the palate. Munich's beer-hall helles, the palest of lagers, has almost no nose or up-front bitterness. Straw blonde and topped by a tall, white crown, it is the quaffing beer of the Bavarians.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

Helles, German for light -- as in color, not calories or alcohol content -- is the Bavarian quaffing beer and official beerhall lager of Munich's famous Hofbrauhaus. A page-turning guide through Bavaria with stories of royalty, dynasties, and helles seekers fill the pages. Beer enthusiasts and brewers interested in learning more about the dazzling helles will treasure this book. Written by a man who knows all about it, Horst Dornbusch covers the exact step-by-step brewing methods to achieve the necessary perfection of a helles.
