16 oz can. This is labeled as a Helles lager by the brewer. Aroma of grass, Noble hops, crackery malt. Taste is apple, mild hay, and ends on sweet cereal malt. Dry, crisp texture. Good body. This is the most flavorful Helles I’ve ever had. It ends a bit sweet but that is what I like about it.

Can from Bine & Vine. Pours clear gold with a persistent creamy white head. Aroma is Noble hop with mildly bready support. There's a fresh green aspect. Med body. Just slightly sweet. Flavor matches the aroma. Very nice.

Can in MV. Cheers to Duke! Pours clear yellow-gold with a small, creamy white topping. Light-medium sweet flavour with lightly doughy biscuits, cereal, straw. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Pretty clean finish, more biscuity malts, mellow bitterness. Easygoing and very drinkable.

Canned 10/1/21, drunk 10/17/21. Bright, clear, copper-golden with a large, well-retained, white head. Beautiful, malt-rich nose of honey, sourdough (light), sugar cookie, earth and mineral and lightly floral, peppery hops. Beautiful in the mouth, as well, as peppery, lightly bitter hops match the malty, yet dry and medium body perfectly. Honey, a dollop of caramel, rustic grains and a long mineral, floral and pepper finish replete with alternating waves of creamy honey-like maltiness and pleasingly bitter, peppery hops. Exquisitely clean. Watery on the end, slightly, but it's endearing and matches the extreme drinkability of the beer's slightly lighter body. Definitely a crusher, but a clean, highly flavorful, balanced and enjoyable one.

Draft at Washington Ave, pours a dark orange with a little haze, cloudy white head. Nose has malt, honey, flowers, some orange. Flavor has honey, sweet dough, flowers, a little yeast. The sweetness reminds me of a maibock almost. Finishes off dry. 7 3 6 3 12
