New Belgium Summer Helles Lager

Pours a crystal clear pale yellow that you could read a newspaper through, with a frothy white head. It's a nice, refreshing, drinkable lager. Drinking so many ales I sometimes forget that lagers are not supposed to be as complex, and I have to reset my expectations. Billed as a Munich-style Helles (helles means "light", as opposed to dunkel = "dark"). There's some roasted grain and bread notes and a teeny-tiny bit of floral character. Not very interesting, but it tastes pretty good.
