Trophy Brewing Company Slim's
What the brewers say
“Helles lager with North Carolina pilsner malt and whole-leaf Sterling hop additions.”
What our panel thought
“Pale yellow with a white head, tight bubbles. Woody pine, herbal, slightly citrus hop-led nose. Flavor leads with bitter Noble hops with a heavy tangerine character. The German clean, malt-driven character comes out at the end, in the bright, clean, dry finish. An aggressively hopped take on the style, but one that works. Very easy to drink.”
What our editors thought
“Strong earthy hop nose with light citrus underneath. Hefty earthy hops in the sip, strong for the style.”
