Leinie’s Helles Getting New Name
Leinenkugel’s Hoppin Helles is getting a new name, Helles Yeah.
The beer details and descriptions will remain the same.
Traditional Helles-style beers tend to be a tad malty. Leinenkugel’s® Hoppin’ Helles™ is our spin on the style that puts it a bit on the hoppy side with five American hops. It is a session German lager that starts bright and citrusy with a tropical hop aroma and low bitterness.
5.5% ABV, 27 IBUs
