Commercial Description:
A pale lager, in the style of a Munich "Hell". Delicate with a very pleasant aftertaste. Our version has been "Cold-Filtered" and has been since before the term was fashionable. Occasionally available unfiltered in the summer months.

Pleasant, balanced, fresh-tasting Helles enjoyed at Growlers on tap when it was still hopping (no pun.) I miss having access to this one.

Started off Canada Day at Denison's a year or two ago. Nice Helles lager. Nice persistent bitterness. My friends were impressed with their first outing to Denisons

The best version of a Bavarian helles I've had outside of Munich. Excellent malty aroma with subtle floral. Clean lager with crisp finish. Outstanding beer.

Pale golden colour. Moderate sweet grainy aroma w/ slight hops accent. Medium bodied w/ smooth maltiness. Slightly sweet malty character w/ just enough bitterness to balance, though bitterness ingers in the aftertaste. A very clean beer.
