What Our Editors Thought

“Clear yellow with aromas of wildflowers and soft floral hops. Gentle pepper notes are complemented by a faint chalky minerality, while a restrained bitterness keeps the beer clean and full without becoming heavy.”

What Our Panel Thought

“Pours with a big sulfur punch. Then a cut-grass freshness starts to give way to a doughy white-bread malt aroma. Low spicy-earthy hops round out the aroma. Drinks with a smooth minerality. Throughout, the spicy hop character dances over the malt and elevates the flavor.”

What the Brewers Say

“Traditional German-style helles lager.”
