Munich Helles is a very light German beer that was created in Munich in 1895 at the Spaten brewery by Gabriel Sedlmayr to compete with Pilsner-style beers. It is a malt-accentuated beer that is not overly sweet, but rather focuses on malt flavor with underlying hop bitterness in a supporting role.
This is the kind of beer I expect to taste when I see those pictures of huge mugs at a German beerfest. Very pilsner like in color, but the head retention suits this malty beverage just perfect. I added some Vienna to really bring out the malt profile.
A very simple recipe, this beer is also easy on the hops budget. For a 5.5 gallon batch, just divide everything in half.

Ingredients:
------------
15.00 lb Pilsner (2 Row) Ger (2.0 SRM)
1.00 lb Munich Malt (9.0 SRM)
1.00 lb Vienna Malt (3.5 SRM)
0.50 lb Cara-Pils/Dextrine (2.0 SRM)
3.00 oz Tettnang [3.20%] (60 min)
1 Pkgs German Ale/Kolsch (White Labs #WLP029) Yeast-Ale
Irish Moss, 15 minutes
Mash at 154 for 90 minutes.
I've brewed this twice in the last 5 weeks and it's a real favorite. At only 3.8%, you can imagine filling a few large mugs and quaffing this on a cold afternoon.
Here's mine, second from the left...Clearer than the picture shows...
