Günter Bräu Helles

Light or dark, that is the question!

These days, most beers are pale. They flow into the glass in a variety of golden and amber tones and are adorned with foam crowns, Their color palette ranges from pure flowery white to ivory to fine beige Even the more unusual beer styles of the craft beer movement are often assigned to the light category However, in most cases their body is not brilliantly fine and crystal clear Rather delicately cloudy to milky The mother of all light beers, however, is not an IPA or fruit beer but the classic pale This type of full beer is extremely popular, especially in Franconia, and should not be missing in any assortment

The private brewery Günther from Burgkunstadt offers a traditional pale ale that is wonderfully drinkable and Franconian

The Günther'sche Helle presents itself in a crystal-clear pale gold in the glass The sparkling carbon dioxide feeds an airy crown of snow-white foam and transports a fine aroma to the surface The olfactory first impression of light malt, bread, lemony hops, The olfactory first impression of light malt, bread, lemony hops, herbs and fine vanilla continues one-to-one in the first sip Softly roasted malt ensnares the palate with mild tartness, caramel and notes of oven-fresh bread, the hops bring hints of woody herbs and tangy lemon peel A moderate bitterness completes the interplay of aromas
