Brewer's Advent Day #7: Kurpfalzbräu Helles

The recipe used for Kurpfalz Helles is over a hundred years old. For a long time, no one knew about it. Max Spielmann, the today's Ceo of Welde, discovered it among old documents of his grandfather Hans Hirsch. Hans had learned the brewing at the beginning of the 20th century at the Doemens Academy in Munich. During this time he came up with the recipe and wrote it down. Many years later he was brewmaster in Plankstadt.

Hirsch obviously passed on his interest in beer recipes to his great-grandson Max, who incidentally also completed his training as a brewmaster and beer sommelier at Doemens in Munich almost 100 years after his great-grandfather.

Let's look forward to a traditional and extremely drinkable German-style Helles. Cheers!

Nice drinkable beer! I wish we could have seen the video of the brewery instead of just hearing the audio. It would be great to get a close up shot of the unique bottle too.

I found this to be a decent beer with a pleasant flavor until an overpowering metalic taste appeared! Yuck!

Thumbs up to the Kurpfalz Helles. We put on an Oktoberfest here in California each year. Our little town has 4 breweries. Each surrounding town has breweries. We have every possible combination of flavors in the thousands of beer options in our area. BUT nowhere can you find a Helles like this. Light, and drinkable, but with a beautifully balanced and well-rounded body. A beer that you can drink in a Mass, and then say, ‘One more, please’. Danke, Kurpfalz Bräu!

Have these videos always been in English? I got the advent calendar from my wife but the first videos were in German so I was completely lost :( . Now I have to go back and check to see if I'm just an idiot. This was my least favorite of the Helles so far, I just found it a touch sour. My wife on the other hand really enjoyed it.

Wonderful, balamced beer. Was great to revisit a favorite from last year's calendar. Also enjoy the leisurely pace of the show. Enjoy watching it each night, and expecially the crazy cast of costumed characters sometimes wondering around outside.
