Impression: I’d not seen this before and for good reason, it’s new as of 2020. Magnificent looking Helles with a creamy chiffon-like head and light mix of grain and hops in the nose. There’s a touch of butterscotch in the mix but it’s well-integrated and pleasant. Lingering semi-dry finish with a slight pleasant bitterness.
