Creemore Springs Helles

Tap to rate

Pale straw and bright in the glass. The nose is deliberately quiet, a low floral hop note over grain, nothing pushed forward. The palate is slightly bready, with a grainy malt profile carrying a soft floral hop flavour through the middle, and the bitterness is held right down. The body is slim without thinning out, helped by the soft spring water behind it. Clean and dry through the finish, at a strength well under the rest of the range.

Pale straw yellow with excellent clarity and brightness in the glass. The head forms lightly but maintains a fine, delicate foam collar with gentle lacing. Carbonation is visible and steady, contributing to the clean, inviting presentation.

◌ Aroma

The nose is restrained and elegant, presenting a soft floral hop character that sits gently over a clean grain foundation. No aggressive aromatics push forward; instead, the profile remains subtle and balanced, allowing the mineral character of the spring water to play a supporting role in the overall bouquet.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a slightly bready, grainy malt entry that provides a modest sweetness and soft texture. Through the mid-palate, delicate floral hop notes weave through without assertiveness, while bitterness remains intentionally low and well-integrated. The slim body is supported by a clean, mineral backbone from the soft spring water, keeping the beer crisp and refreshing rather than thin.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and dry, with the modest grain sweetness fading quickly to leave a mineral, slightly herbaceous aftertaste. Lingering floral hop notes fade gently without any harsh edges, resulting in a refreshingly crisp conclusion.
