Yellow color. Aromas and flavors of rice and grain water cracker, lemongrass and Thai basil, lemon balm, and melon with a round, vibrant, spritzy, dry light-to-medium body and an interesting, medium-length finish that presents accents of rice noodles, biscuit dough, and savory herbs. Heave a stein with wild abandon as this draught gives a light and refreshing take on the style.

Munich Helles

Munich helles lagers are pale to golden in color and range in alcohol from 4.5-5.5%. These beers traditionally malt-accented with subtle hop character. They are generally weightier than standard pale lagers though less substantial than dortmunder export styles. The finest examples still come from the brewing center of Munich and are relatively easy to find in major US markets. Noteworthy examples of this style include: Full Sail LTD 03, Hofbräu Original Lager and Paulaner Original Munich Premium Lager.
