Impression: I was doing a tour and was asked about this beer and decided I should have at least tried it. It was quite an odd looking Helles with an unfiltered amber hue and the floral hops in the nose were also a bit odd for the style. It turned out to be a gorgeous misnamed Helles, more in the ale realm with a lovely floral hoppiness and moreish semi-dry finish. I’d get this again and that’s with two other good beers on deck.
