Helles Lager
This beer is a crisp clear German Lager. Golden in appearance with a beautiful malty taste and dry finish.
Originating in Austria, Vienna Lager really took off in America pre-1919 (when prohibition began), hence coined the term “Pre Prohibition Lager”. Our old world Vienna-style lager begins with crystal clear Alpine Water. Fermented very cold and slow. The result is a copper coloured lager that has a noted malty sweetness with a touch more richness than your usual lager. Hopped to balance the distinct toasty malt profile. The finish – clean, crisp and perfectly dry.
This is a classic NZ Pilsner. Brewed using a single hop - Motueka - from Garston Hops. It has a golden straw colour with bright white head. The aroma has a distinct German Lager smell with hints of lime and lemon. The flavour is light and the lime and lemon come through in a subtle way. A very sessionable beer!
Our light entry beer, a great thirst quencher with all the great attributes of a lager.
Good things take time & after 6 weeks of lagering, a clean crisp Pilsner delivers flavours that will keep you comming back for more.
Crisp, clean, and quietly expressive, Golden Hour Pilsner delivers soft malt character and gentle Saaz hop bitterness.
Filled to the brim with a blend of American and NZ hops, there’s nothing traditional about this.
