Top 10 Beers We Drank in September 2024
Let It Lager – Alameda Brewing
Alameda, CA
Helles – We stopped by Alameda Brewing in early September after our first-ever pickleball match. With summer hanging on and a slick of sweat on our brow, this helles quenched and replenished.
Brewed with malt kilned right in Alameda from Admiral Maltings, Let It Lager slid down easy with a crisp, refreshing bite that had everything we wanted in a German lager.
Bready in the beginning, thanks to the pilsner malt and white wheat, this helles had a whisper of Noble hop goodness, probably thanks to the Saaz hops.
Lagering for six weeks, Let It Lager lived up to its name—Alameda Brewing gave this beer the time to do its thing. Should we be sorry for greedily drinking it in just a few gulps? Nah, we just ordered another!
