Berg Original Hell
A lean, pale lager in which neither malt nor hops push forward: both show up as restrained notes, and the body stays slim. Pale barley malt forms the whole grist; Tettnanger Herkules and Tettnanger Tradition provide the hopping. Over the decades the brewery has sold the same beer under the names Lager, Helles and Export. Original gravity is 11.9 percent, the lowest in the year-round range together with the pilsner.
