What Our Panel Thought
Aroma: Light sulfur aroma followed by bready pils malt. Very low hop aroma, perhaps a whiff of floral hops. Noble hops balanced by pils malt, cut with a light apple cider note. Clean lager profile.
Flavor: Crisp and assertive bitterness followed by smooth, slightly sweet malt. Fine, lively carbonation dances on the tongue. Light pils malt followed by a brisk flash of spicy hop flavors, then a light bitterness.
Overall: Well-balanced and classic, this is a fine Helles. Somewhat hop balanced, such a delicate beer should be enjoyed as fresh as possible. Light bodied and refreshing, a great beer for nearly any occasion. Well-brewed and executed with just the right amount of malt focus to make it appropriate for the style.
What the Brewers Say
The long storage makes our yellow bright lager, Original, a flavorful beer with fine poured, white foam. With a mild hoppy note and its pleasant fresh spicy taste, it goes very well with salads, poultry, stews, or with a hearty snack.
