Description 

In Baltic mythology, fate is determined by three goddess sisters, the Laimas. Known to be well-balanced, refreshing and with a hint of sweetness, the Laimas Kölsch Style Ale is sure to grant its drinker a kind destiny. The golden color, sessionable maltiness, subtle hint of nobel hops and crisp dry finish make it the perfect warm weather partner.

This beer pours a brilliant gold color with a lingering white head. The aroma greets you with a light, perfumy hop character, followed by a light, bready maltiness and fresh pear. The flavor is a near-perfect balance between the perfumy hops, pear esters and soft, bready malt. A moderately low hop bitterness emerges mid-palate and lingers through a light residual sweetness and into a medium-dry finish. A very light and appropriate yeast-derived sulfur character appears as it warms and helps accentuate the dryness. Laimas is a well-crafted and balanced beer that should be enjoyed during the warmer months.
