Town: Zirndorf
Style: Helles 4.8%

Served: on tap at the Zirndorfer Bräuschank in Zirndorf
Impression: Served a bit too cold and fizzy with minimal attention to presentation but it’s nonetheless a serviceable example of the style. Golden hue with thin creamy head. Malt forward with a fair amount of grain in both the nose and palate. With some underlying hops, it’s balanced enough but the lingering finish is a tad sticky though perhaps less so than the Landbier. Wouldn’t seek it out but glad I got it and would likely choose it over the Landbier if those were the only two choices.
