Hells (or Helles) simply means pale in German and describes the malty, easy-to-drink beer that is lovingly referred to as 'liquid bread'.With a brewery dating back to 1328, Augustinerbräu is the oldest brewer in Munich and the last remaining independent brewer in the historic city.

For some products supply can be inconsistent, whether that is at the brewery itself or how often we or its supplier imports it. Augustiner beer has been around for hundreds of years, originally produced by the Augustinian monks in their monastery near Munich’s cathedral. Because we work from the barcode, if producers does not make us aware of a label change we often miss updates until we are contacted about it. One of the standout features of Augustiner Helles is its aroma, which is a delicate balance of sweet malt and floral hops. Huge selection of beer which changes all the time - you could easily never drink the same beer twice (but I now have some firm favourites).

Crazy to think how long I’ve wanted to drink this specific beer, as Helles is one of my favorite styles. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this.

Please note that it isn’t always possible to provide a perfect looking bottle/label as this very much depends on the condition they are received in from our supplier.
