In this episode, we explore the history of Helles Lager and other German Lagers. Lagers have sadly developed a poor name in the craft beer community due to the endless sea of mass-produced pilsners but the history of Lager is both fascinating and deeply complex. Helles Lager is Germany's response to the Pilsner and provides a deeply complex and nuanced beer.

During the episode, we discuss Lagers more generally and what makes a beer a Lager (hint: it isn't related to the colour).

Featured this week are:

•Weihenstephaner Original Helles

•Burleigh Brewing Blonde Bier Garden Lager

•10 Toes Hell Yes Lager
