Commercial Description:
Our special lager for the season. Golden color, a bit strong and more hoppy than traditional Hellesbock. Like all our beers, we obtain our ingredients from the country which the style originated. This lager is rich and sophisticated.

On tap, Barley’s, Asheville. Ornage, thin white head. Toasty, bready, grapey aroma. Flavor is winey and a bit medcinal. Some corny notes, too. Pretty sraight forward.

Draft at the brewery. Pours a medium gold color with a tall white head. We’ve got a grainy cereal aroma on this one. It’s malt forward with low levels of hops. The flavor reflects this, it’s crisp and light, though without any off flavors. The carbonation is average. This is a decent, straightforward lager with suggestions of white corn, a metallic twang, and cereal.
