Gold Dot Gold Dot Helles Lager
What the brewers say
“Made with a single-variety German pale barley coupled with a blend of our favorite low-alpha hops from the Hallertau region.”
What our panel thought
“Brilliant straw-yellow color with sticky, soapy white foam. Light, herbaceous Noble hop character with a slight cracker note. Flavorful honey notes and delicate floral hops lead to a well-rounded finish. Leaves you wanting another glass.”
What our editors thought
“Very subtle nose dials the floral and herbal notes back. It’s tough to discern individual notes, but a general bready tone underscores these very light top notes. That exquisite balance extends into the flavor, where the malt pulls a compelling magic trick—it’s convincing in its fullness yet remains nimble as it darts from the palate as quickly as it appeared.”
