Taste how it looks, an inoffensive lightly hopped beer. On draft at the source. OK for what it is, but underperforms in the style. More body and more hops suggested.

Clear gold under a coarse soapy white head. Fulsome juicy nose, hops and apples, sweet malt and a dose of alcohol.
Creamy, juicy mouthfeel with a bit of a bite from carbonation. Apple juice character in its mouthfeel and taste. Fruity hops, notable maltiness. Doughiness as well. I find it to be kind of heavy going.

473 mL can from the LCBO; dated Apr 8 2019 and served well chilled. I do love a good Munich helles, and this particular domestic example was compared side-by-side with one of my favourites of said style (Hofbräu Original).
Pours clear golden-blonde, with no effervescence whatsoever - I only mention this because I've reviewed at least a dozen pale lagers in the last week or so, and this is the first one that has looked downright still. Situated atop is just over a finger of soapy, foamy white head that falls apart over the next couple of minutes; a modest collar of froth lives on, but that's about it. Its aromas are immaculately clean and very subtle: I'm getting only a note of grainy, doughy pale malt sweetness and a touch of floral, grassy noble hops.
It's a pretty good helles lager, with grainy pale malts, and bready, cereal sweetness comprising the bulk of the flavour profile. Suggestions of apples, followed by a grassy, floral note on the back end that nicely accentuates the lingering bread/grain flavours; off-dry aftertaste. Light in body, with middling carbonation levels that provide a crisp bite; quite refreshing and very drinkable.
Final Grade: 3.7, a B grade. German lagers make up a large percentage of the pie chart that is my overall beer consumption, and Divercity's is a fine interpretation - better than most local approximations, although there are definitely better Munich Helles lagers out there. I wouldn't search high and low for this beer, but if it remains in stock (and fresh) then I'm sure I'll be picking up more. Give it a try and decide for yourself; I'd take it over Lowenbräu.

473 ml can served cold into a St. Pauli girl mug. LCBO purchase for just over $3 CDN.
Appearance - clear, piss yellow beer with a finger of quickly receding head on top. Pretty non-descript otherwise, lots of bubbles.
Smell - clean, lots of grain, a subtle summery sweetness of corn and slight bits of floral aspects. Pretty good stuff.
Taste - lots of bready flavors, subtle corn sweetness and quite a good depth of flavor too. Nice aftertaste.
Mouthfeel - medium bodied, well carbonated, easy to drink, carbonation might be a touch high, but still good feel, with a fairly non dry finish.
Overall - very nice helles lager, worth a try and with summer on the horizon, this is a great beer for barbecuing, brats, and all things summer.
