Privatbrauerei Wittingen

Helles Lager·Germany·5% ABV·One of 506 Helles Lagers in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Heide Craft Helles's floral and bready character. Wittinger Heide Craft Helles pours a deep gold, clear to faintly hazy. Hops from Tettnang and Spalt give the nose a fresh floral lift with light herbal and spicy notes, more pronounced than in a classic Helles. Underneath, a blend of Pilsner and Munich malt brings a soft, bready body with a hint of honeyed grain. The palate is full yet only gently malty, and a bitterness of 20 IBU keeps the finish clean with a slightly dry edge. Brewed to 5.0 % ABV at 11.6 °P original gravity.
