North Carolina Breweries History: Apex Brewing
Sir Walter Raleigh Lager is a Helles Lager which is a golden
Bavarian-style lager, with a firm malty body, a subtle hop character, and a
slightly sweet finish. Helles is the German word for light or pale, referring
to the color of the beer. Our Helles is bottom-fermented, making it a lager beer,
and has a medium to light-body. It has a clean, malt accented aroma and a malty
finish with little hop bitterness. Sir Walter Raleigh Lager is a very balanced beer,
meaning that it is not too sweet and not too bitter. It is brewed mostly with pale
malted barley and small amounts of Vienna and Munich malts, which increases the body
and maltiness in the beer.
