Helles Dittken
Helles Dittken arrived in early 2025 as the brand's take on the Bavarian pale lager. The name plays on an East Westphalian saying for something that runs smoothly. The head brewer describes it as mild and easy drinking at 5 percent. Tasters find a sweetish, grainy nose and a soft malt sweetness with a rustic cereal note, while the hops stay in the background and give only a faint herbal touch. The finish is round and lightly sweet rather than bitter.
