$11.99 USD (plus tax) per 4-pack at a grocer in River Ridge, Louisiana.

4.5% ABV. "Brewed with Heirloom German Malt, German Hops & Bavarian Lager Yeast." "German Style Helles Lager."

A decent American attempt at the style, but a bit overhopped and not ultimately very memorable despite being generally well balanced and not suffering from any faults.

Has a honeyed Munich malt sweetness and a blip of floral hop flavour. Neither spicy nor grassy...lacks adequate Noble hop flavour.

$3 per pint is more than you'd pay for any top tier Munich Helles Lager in Germany.

3.32/5  rDev -0.6%
look: 3.5 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 3.25 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.25
Appearance: Pours a brilliant, yellow body with a smallish, bubbly, white head.

Smell: Just the merest whiff of sweet barley edged by a little crunchy grains. Again, it's really, really mild.

Taste: Slightly sweet, slightly grainy. You wait for some underlying hop character, maybe just a touch of bitterness, but it never comes. As such, it ends with its same initial sweetness.

Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium-light carbonation.

Overall: Just a tad lacking.
