This medium bodied, malt forward, dry, crisp Helles (pronounced hell-ess,) is slightly nutty (just like 2020,) with low bitterness, and a subtle herbal spice. It’s bready, with notes of pecan sandies, biscuit, and slightly toasty sweet bread!
Helles, which simply means “bright” in German, is indeed a bright, malty beer that retains the crispness of a lager without the spicy hops found in a pilsner.
This delicious beer is pictured here with one of our favorite shirts of the year by none other than Asheville’s very own Moonlight Makers 🤣
