In the art of brewing, creating a Helles, the most delicate of beers, is pure haute école. It is the classic straw blond quaffing lager for all occasions, from quenching a summer thirst to washing down a many-course meal. Its stable snow-white crown of foam and its gentle bouquet of grainy malt and herbal hop notes beckons the drinker to take a first sip. On the palate, Helles is slender and crisp, with a perfect balance of clean maltiness and noble hoppiness and it finishes dry, with next to no residual sweetness. Instead, there is a lingering, gentle bitterness and a very mild and refreshing acidity.
This brew goes with any dish but is particularly well suited as a liquid companion to delicatessen sandwiches, salads, light sea food or grilled chicken.
