This week's Sunday Night Suds looks at Samuel Adams Golden Hour Helles Lager.
I'm not generally a fan of the Munich/Helles lagers as I often find them to be mild, but this beer was an exception. It poured a creamy darker yellow than I was expecting and did not have the scent of a eurolager which I was expecting. There was some malt, but also a citrus (mostly lemon) which I was not expecting and I found myself thoroughly enjoying the brew.
The only Golden Hour Helles Lager that I have seen came in the summer mix box which also included a tropical beer called "Golden Yuzu" which is not under kosher supervision. I would have considered buying more of the Golden Hour Helles Lager if I could have found it in six packs as it would be a nice accompaniment to lighter Rosh Hashanah meals.
The Samuel Adams Golden Hour Helles Lager is under the Kosher Supervision of the Star-K and has a Star-K certification mark on the bottle. To see what the experts on Beer Advocate think about this brew, please follow this link - beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/35/263942.
As always, please remember to drink responsibly and to never waste good beer unless there is no designated driver.
