On tap at New Albanian, pours a hazy blonde with a medium white head. Aroma brings out crisp crackery malt, a grassy character and a light herbal crunchiness. Flavour follows through, with grassy notes upfront, light herbal character, and a crisp crackery malt base. This is pretty authentic. Crisp and nicely herbal. Very nice helles.

Tap at NA. Unfiltered, which is illogical for the style. Yellow tan body, big foamy, steady white head. Creamy, yeasty, smooth lager tones. Delicate noble hops. Yeasty, smooth, light to medium bodied. Highly sessionable. Awesome.

Draft. Straw yellow body with a fizzy, short white head. Grassy aroma with notes of toasted grain, cookie, herbs and some floral notes. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes lightly to moderately sweet and moderatelyy sweet. Medium body, watery texture and lively carbonation. Clean and crisp with a hop bitterness that lingers. Taste of noble hops, lemon and sweet grass. Nicely nuanced. One of New Albanian’s best.
