Ale Architect Brewing Ltd. Lil’ Crispy – Helles Lager at 5% ABV (C$4.20 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 23-Nov-2020, acquired 26-Mar-2021, reviewed 1-Apr-2021)
Appearance: clear straw with one finger of short-lived white head, no lacing. (3/5) Aroma: mild, cereal grains, grass, herbs. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (8/10) Palate: medium-light body, moderate carbonation, off-dry short duration crisp finish. (4/5)
Pretty much what it says on the label: light, clean, and crisp. Leaves very little trace of its passing, including on the completely lace-free glass. No challenges here, just a straight-up refreshing Helles. (15/20)
