A tribute beer to our amazing community, El 9 Wye is a crisp, refreshing, and lightly malty Helles-lager. Great for porch sips, backyard strolls, and window-side enjoyment in these physically-distant times.

This is Black Bellow's best beer so far that I've tried. " Shinny Fuel " and " Big Buck " are also really good and these beers were only available online through their website. Shipping Ontario wide. They messed up most of my order but a quick phone call solved it, and i think they sent me an extra few beers for the mix up.
El 9 Wye here has a light toasted bread flavor that i like. It's good. Mild bitterness due to the hops.
Overall a good beer and I'm craving more of this beer specifically. I'll have to order again online one of these days.
Update: I did order again from Black Bellows. This beer is just as great as it was a couple months ago. Seriously recommend this one when buying from Black Bellows.

I bought a 6 pack of 355ml cans at 4.8%. ordered it from the brewery
A Tribute beer to our amazing community in Collingwood.
This crisp , refreshing and lightly malted Helles lager is a pale gold in color with a delicate sweetness balanced by German Hallertau hops.
It said on the side of the can .
I popped the can open pretty cold poured into glass with a 2finger head nice looking color a little hazy but pale gold .
The taste was refreshing and enjoyable easy to drink leaving a lace all around as you drink it
Very low bitterness level
Overall a delicious Helles lager.
Cheers
