Helles

Helles is a pale lager with a light golden hue and a clean, crisp character. It offers a balanced malt profile featuring subtle bready and biscuit notes, complemented by mild Bavarian hop bitterness. Compared to pilsners, it presents a softer hop presence, making it smooth and highly drinkable. The aroma is gentle with hints of grassy hops and light sweetness. Its medium-light body and moderate carbonation provide a refreshing mouthfeel, making Helles an approachable beer for those seeking a classic continental lager style.
