Paulaner Original Munchner Hell

alc - 4.9%
origin - Germany
price - $3.20 single/ $19 6pk

Thought I'd better review a German beer seeing as we have quite a few in the shop.

A classic golden orange colour, with not much of a head, but I'm probably not drinking this out of the right glass so I'll ignore that for now.

Clean fruit driven flavours are abundant on the nose, primarily a bit of peach and a distinct hay smell.
Very clean palate with more hay and a steely edge with slight hoppy bitterness on the finish.

A little bit simple for my liking, but still a very good lager that would do the trick on a hot sunny day.
