Helles, (pronounced ‘Hell Es’) is a traditional German pale lager bier.

It’s all about the brewing process…

We begin with a specially selected premium lager yeast & a variety of classic Noble European hops & throw in some Perle for a little bittering, then the Tettnang & Hersbrucker hops to add character.

During fermentation, we add some Saaz for an earthy & floral hint & finally the Mandarina Bavaria hop to give an extra subtle hint of lemon complexity to the taste & aroma.

Sweetness balanced with a light bitterness, delicately hopped, clear & light, it’s the epitome of a thirst-quenching lager bier.

Clear straw coloured with a bubbly white head and a slightly grassy and fruity nose. Crisp and fresh, bitter up front with lemony notes and a dry finish

Keg @ Castle Hotel, Manchester. Golden with a creamy head. It's certainly styled well and is crisp with a fair carbonation. This one is for lager lovers only though.
