The perfect way to enter the realm of smoked beers is through the Gates of Helles. A soft touch on the smoke superbly complements this helles-style lager. The result is an amazingly satisfying and refreshing golden lager whereby the smoke brings complexity and depth to the world’s most popular style of beer. Crack open the Gates of Helles and abandon all hope of returning to conventional flavors.

    Bottle from the brewery that pours a clean light golden colour with a frothy white head, good stay and some froth lacing. Smoked malt aromas with some light sweetness from the grains. The flavours are really the same - sweet and smoked malts. Thankfully, the end is dry, so not lingering like syrup. Makes this easier to drink. A nice smoked Helles lager.
