Woke As Helles
Metropolitan Brewing

 

 

 

Had on tap. Nitro pour. Frothy and cloudy dirty bronze with a finger of white foam. Coffee grounds, caramel malt, white bread, and lager yeast aromas. Taste is the issue however, where the coffee grounds are inconsistent in the adhesion to the underlying lager, and instead make the taste watery before sharply interjecting all by themselves. Very bitter on the finish, no honey or other helles finishers. Feel reflects this separation: watery, light, but does have good sharpness from the coffee after smooth nitro enhanced malts.
