The Kuchlbauer Helles is a mildly-yellow coloured Helles. Kuchlbauer is a reallz superb brewery with much of the site's architecture influenced by Friedensreich Hundertwasser. See here for some images.
Here is my photo of this Helles, in glass, on balcony.
The beer gives a wide-bubbled head from its moderate carbonation.
The nose on this one is slightly grassy with a touch of what I am going to call "tannin" - a sort of metallic astringency.
The taste is sweet, as you'd expect from a Helles with a mellow hoppiness, which is then tempered by a medium dry toffee flavour - not sugary but caramel nonetheless. This beer is mild enough to allow fast drinking whilst still carrying flavour for savoring. I'd say this is a good option as a post-lawn-mowing beer (if you mow lawns...).
I give this beer a very solid 4 out of 7
