Using all German ingredients, except for the water, each batch is another baby step towards recreating what we’ve experienced in Munich. Straw in color, with a subtly and nuance that is hard to describe and instead needs to be experienced! Notes of fresh baked bread, herbal tea, and hay create a beer style that is praised for it’s liter-worthy drinkability.

Sweet and light honey bread malty, and light hint of lemony citrus nose on this one! Taste follows with a clean and crisp, honeyed biscuity malty, and subdued hoppy citrus bitter finish. For the style, this is really well done! All-German ingredients used and a good representation of a Helles lager. I think it's time to respect Green Cheek's lager game! Delicious!

Now that’s a Helles done right! I haven’t had the pleasure of drinking a Helles properly in Germany, but imagine the brewers at Green Cheek have and they brewed a darn good example inspired by the real thing. Bready, a bit malty, clean and pure, I could devour a pint of this.

Not a fan tbh. And your boy loves him some Green Cheek, but he ain’t dead loyal for them like a kitten on milk. It’s just kind of syrupy... like a waffle or a 40. Take your pick.
Next!
