[1] Review by pfoxyjohn from Watertown, WI, USA who has tried this beer once. (11/2/2008 8:14:51 PM)
"Poured a bright, clear golden yellow with a foamy white head vom Faß at the Andechs Bräustüberl. Slightly sour nose of grain and grass. Full round palate but with a crisp bitter edge. Flavors of fresh grain with the same sour bitterness in the finish as in the dopplebock. Excellent complement to my roasted schwein haxe. "

"Bottled (thanks SHIG). Yellowish golden colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is malts and hops with slightly grassy notes. Flavour is quite much the same along with mild caramelly notes. OK, but nothing really exciting. "

[3] Review by Sigmund from Hafrsfjord, Norway who has tried this beer once. (9/1/2005 9:51:09 AM)
"500 ml bottle, bought in Germany. ABV is 5.9%. Pale golden colour, large and lingering white head. Fruity and grassy aroma, some malty sweetness too. Soft mouthfeel, moderate carbonation, moderate but decent hops well balanced with the pale malts. I am rarely "swept away" by a helles (nor by any other type of pale lagers, for that matter), not by this one either - but the Andechser Spezial is a well made and very drinkable helles, as far as helles go. Kloster Andechs is probably one of Germany’s best breweries overall."

[5] Review by jonmoore from United Kingdom who has tried this beer once. (7/16/2004 4:49:32 PM)
"Bottle. Light golden coloured, with foamy white, long lasting head. Fair bit of lacing. Aroma is sweet and malty/grainy with some hops. Taste is slightly sweet and malty with a light bitter finish and long aftertaste. Full bodied and smooth. Good quality and very nice."
