This clean, clear, and ultra-sessionable Helles Lager beer begins with a specialty German lager malt for its crisp profile and subtle notes of lemon sherbet. Our usual mash schedule is swapped out for a decoction – a complex, historic process that involves boiling part of the grain to build out melanoidin in the wort and lend a touch of tannic depth to the body, resulting in a beautifully complex baseline character.

German Saphir hops further amplify this brew’s soft lemon character and blend smooth bitterness into our decoction base, while the whole brew enjoys a gentle ferment and extended maturation on an ultra-classic Austrian yeast strain that evokes softly rising bread and beer halls full of ceramic steins. The result is an intensely cool and crushable lager that balances gentle depth with refreshing simplicity.
