Hell Yes!
Moat Mountain Smoke House & Brewing Co.

Amazingly close to the mainstream German brands helles type beer.

 

Can: Poured a clear pale yellow color lager with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of cereal notes with some light sugar notes and subtle dry herbal hops notes. Taste is also a mix of cereal notes with some dry herbal hops notes with some residual sugar notes. Body is about average for style with good carbonation. Refreshing lager but could be a bit cleaner.

 

Nucleated Pilsner
Look: Clear gold-yellow, with 1 finger head. Dissipated into a moderate ring and heavy lacing
Smell: Malty, hops, caramel. citrus, baking spices
Taste: Malt and some citrus which fades into a light hop bitterness. Finish with a wheat and toasted cereal grain notes
Feel: Moderate carbonation, moderate mouthfeel and a crisp finish

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From the can, it pours a clear light golden color with a nice white head. The head lasts for a little while. Little to no lacing. Light grassy scent that leads to a light gassy taste. Pleasant and easy to drink.

 

 

 

A clean drinking lager. Period.

 

 

This was poured into a pilsener glass. The appearance was a soft hazy golden yellow color with a nice transparency about it. Carbonation rides softly up at a nice pace. Quickly dissipating little white head, soft thin white lacing. The smell is basically a soft sweet honey biscuity malty goodness. The flavor leans sweet with a nice grassy sweetness stringing along into the aftertaste. Semi-dry biscuity dry finish. On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a spectacular sessionable feel to it. Carbonation barely hits my tongue and allows a light stickiness to hit, but still slide for the most part. Overall, I think it was a nice Helles Lager that I would have again.
