Our Lager takes its inspiration from the German style of lager, Helles. Ours, like the first Helles beer that was brewed back in 1894, has a sweet, malty flavour balanced with a light aromatic hoppiness that makes it very refreshing. We use Naked Golden Oats to make our Lager. Naked Golden Oats are grown without husks so that even more sweetness and flavour can be extracted from the grains during brewing.

Pours clear gold into a shaker. Bright white head with good retention recedes to coat surface. Cracker and biscuit aromas. Crisp and dry with sweet malt and mild straw front to back. Abrupt finish.

Medium bodied, soft on the tongue with a sticky cloying back.
Light malt, biscuit & cereal tastes with a hop bite on the finish.
Not bad for a lager.

Festival pint draft at the Royal Mile Tavern in Edinburgh, Scotland. It pours a clear gold color with a small off-white head and very good retention. Absolutely no aroma. Soft pale malt flavor. Clean and smooth with a very faint bready note in the finish. More of a pale lager profile versus a Helles in my opinion. Light body. Medium carbonation. Not bitter.

From tap at a restaurant in Edinburgh. Grassy herbal hop aroma with soft grainy malt. Moderate bitter, finishes dry. Lovely crisp grassy Lager, well done.
