Triple Point Helles

Tap to rate

The first core lager from the Sheffield brewery, brewed since its opening and modelled on the easy-drinking pale lagers of Munich. Sheffield water meets Admiral, Mittelfrüh and Amarillo hops; the result is clean and refreshing, with a hint of citrus and honeysuckle. It is never filtered, yet fined to pour bright and clear. At 4.1% it sits at the light end of the style and is served straight from the tank in the taproom. Bronze at the World Beer Awards 2025.

Clean and delicate on the nose, with subtle noble hop character from Mittelfrüh and Amarillo. Honeysuckle and soft citrus notes emerge with careful attention, underpinned by understated malt sweetness. The overall impression is restrained and elegant, with no solvent or yeast-driven characters.

◐ Taste

Crisp entry with balanced malt body and gentle bitterness that never overwhelms. The mid-palate reveals soft grain character and a whisper of honeysuckle complexity. Low IBU loading ensures drinkability while the citrus thread from Amarillo provides just enough definition to prevent blandness.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and refreshing, fading cleanly without lingering sweetness or hop burn. A light mineral quality from Sheffield water provides subtle structure through the aftertaste.
