Description:
This is a German Helles style lager. Helles is German for “bright”. These began to be produced in Munich around 1890 as a response to the popularity of Czeck Pilsner beers and are marked by a light color, smooth malt flavor and modest hop character. This beer primarily relies on top quality Pilsner malt for its flavor and body. American Vanguard hops are used to add a subtle hop bitterness, flavor and aroma. It is a lager style, or bottom fermented beer, which showcases the flavors of the ingredients over the flavors of the yeast.We originally brewed this beer in celebration of Lawrence’s 150th anniversary in 2004, hense the name 1854 Helles.
