Our version of a Bavarian-style unfiltered lager. Sweet malt, subtle floral hops and a crisp refreshing finish.
Inspired by lazy days by the river Eisbach, this is our flagship beer that will change what you think about lager.

29/IV/23 - on tap @ Tilquin English Beer Fest, BB: n/a (2023-366) Thanks to all for sharing today’s beers!
Clear pale yellow beer, small creamy white head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: malty, grains, but not sweet, some wheat maybe, fruity, citrus, nice, clean bitterness, a little floral, herbal hoppiness. MF: ok carbon, medium to light body. Taste: sweetish start, some honey, floral, good bitterness, earthy, nice! Aftertaste: gentle hops, almost sweet malts, dry finish, good stuff!

Slightly hazy pale golden with a white head. Slightly sweet, slight toasted malt, and a bit of earthy hops. Medium bodied. Decent but very light.

200ml, draught at Tromsø Mikrobryggeri. Patchy surface, next-to-clear yellowish-gold body, spotty lacing. Moderate aromas of noble hops, grass, and pale malts. Grassy flavours, added by a citric twist and white bread in the background. Short grain-citric end. Clean on the swallow. Refreshing thirst quencher. (Tromsø, 25.03.2023).

Burk. Lättdrucket med ljust bröd och citrus, en lätt kropp och hög (kanske för hög) kolsyra.

Can at home in Hackney - sourced from HOTM. Pours clear gold with a frothy, white head. Lightly sweet, with notes of pale grains, a hint of tangy lemon, grass, lightly dirty hay. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Finishes with notes of dry biscuits, straw. Drinks fine overall.

Helles hazey unfined. Modern Jelles not a Bavarian clean malt profile. Juicy rexture. Kiwi hops. NZ Hallertau I would guess. Nice and clean and perfect for the summer.
