Style: Our German-style Helles Lager is more full-bodied than a light lager or all-malt pilsners. The exceptional balance of sweet, spicy, and bitterness in this SMASH-style (single malt, single hop) brew is made for all-day drinking.

Characters: Hop – Hallertauer Mittelfrüh / Malt – Old World Pilsner

IBU 22 | SRM 3.3

Mostly clear body but with a hint of chill haze; fair carbonation; one-finger plus thick head, white and dense with a semi-creamy texture; nice, fat broken fingers of foam streak the glass. Nice aroma; very light malt backbone; fruity esters suggesting ripe apple, pear, and peach. Taste follows along with the aroma; delicate malt; lightly sweet; mild pome fruit qualities. Medium body; soft and velvety on the palate.

This is a rock solid helles beer. Very balanced and flavorful with a near-stunning mouthfeel for the style.

ABV: 5.0%; pouring temperature: 45.3 °F; canning info: n/a
