Earlier during the pandemic, Dan tastes this Helles of a collaboration from Fogbelt, Back of the Class, care of Allo The Craft Beer Concierge.

Fogbelt Brewing Company Back of the Class

STYLE: HellesINGREDIENTS: Pilsner malt, hopsABV: 4.8%IBU: 9AVAILABILITY: 16-Ounce can (Limited Release)Stats above taken from the brewery’s can.

Appearance

Clear, medium yellow/golden hue with effervescent carbonation.

Aroma

Biscuity note straight off the bat, with a hint of hops.

Taste

Dry, with continuation of the biscuit element and a gentle bit of hops.

Mouthfeel

Light and crisp on the palate with refreshing carbonation.

Overall

Too bad this isn’t available on the East Coast, though Fogbelt does have a Helles now. I would drink this with German food for sure, though you can use it with most any cuisine or just slam a few after work.

Thank you so much to Allo for sharing this one!.

Cheers and remember:

Life’s a tap…drink up ’til it’s dry.
