We used three types of classic German malts and Loral hops to craft this malt forward yet dry beer. With a bready flavor, subtle lager yeast character and cracker dry finish, this beer reminds us of beautiful summer days at the beach.

Pours medium amber with a thick white head that fades. Aroma is berry sweet with some resin notes. Taste is malty with the sticky resin flavor, not unpleasant but sticky. Feel is okay, but it’s a lager so it’s in-line with that. Overall, not bad, certainly worth a try.

16 oz, canned on 4/1/2020. "Beach Balls" inscribed on the bottom.
Pours a deep gold to light amber color with a slight haze. Darker than your typical Helles. You can still see your fingers through the other side of the glass though. Big, frothy white head with good retention. Sparse lacing on the glass.
Very mild aroma of sweet, grainy malt and earthy hops. The flavor is much more pronounced but it's not jiving with me. Sweet, crackery malt that's a little too heavy and spicy, earthy hops that just don't agree with me at all. The finish is not as soft and clean as I would have liked.
This is my first time trying a beer brewed with Loral hops and I don't think I'm a fan. Overall, it's not an awful take on a Helles but needs a little refinement. It's missing that clean, fully attenuated feel to it. Some noble hops and more focus on good quality Pils malt could do it some good.
