Crafted in homage to the surfers of the Isar River in Munich, this Tropical Helles Bock is bursting with aromas of citrus, pineapple, mango, and coconut. Strong hop character and a perfectly bitter finish makes this an ideal beer for the summer sun.

On tap at the brewery, served in a Franconia Glass
This beer pours a clear, light copper/straw color, with a big fluffy white head, that recedes quickly, leaving behind a fair amount of lacing
The aroma is pineapple, and generic citrus fruit, with a very light breadyness.
The flavor is similar to the aroma; citrusy with hints of pineapple, and maybe just a hint of coconut. Mildly bready malt flavors provide a bit of balance to the hoppy flavors. Moderately carbonated and medium/light bodied.
Overall, the beer is easy to drink an refreshing, a decent summer beer, not bad for an IPL, but it is not a Maibock
