Helles 5
This is probably the best helles I've brewed to date. It has the perfect mix of grainy flavor and lager crispness, without the astringency or metallic notes from prior versions.
It is yet another simply smash beer, with 100% Weyermann pilsner malt and 3.2% AA Hallertauer hops (purchased a couple years ago, but they worked out fine).
I kegged this beer over three weeks ago, in hopes that that would be enough time for any yeast and chill haze to settle out. But it didn't. So I hit it with gelatin on Sunday night (October 23), and the beer was clear by Tuesday night. It is really looking nice.
A little under-carbonated at this point, but it tastes great.
