🌍 Austria · Helles Lager · One of 199 Helles Lagers in hopIQ

Schladminger Bergbier Hell is a bright, bottom-fermented lager from the Ennstal brewery, brewed from barley malt and Styrian aroma hops to an original gravity of 11.6 degrees Plato. It pours a clear, pale gold under a fine white head. The nose brings soft cereal and a hint of straw; the palate is refreshingly malty with a light bread-like sweetness and a mild herbal touch, and a moderate hop bitterness carries into a clean, well-drinking finish.
