Old Nation Fritts Lager is a Helles style lager. The result of 100 years of German brewing tradition. Some styles focus on the hop, some on malt, some on yeast. Helles relies on perfect raw materials and technique which creates a harmonious interplay of all of those things. The goal is a balanced beer, fresh and clean.
Fritts Lager is Old Nation’s example of the Bavarian Helles style. Old Nation owner Travis Fritts loves the brewing technique behind this style so much that he put his name on the label!
“The thing I love most about the Helles style is that it represents, in my opinion, the most “drinkable” continental lager style in existence. The focus is firmly on excellent raw materials and brewing technique. There are no gimmicks in this style, and harmonious balance of Water, Barley malt, hops and yeast is the only goal. For folks like me who have a connection to European lager and “Crispy Bois” new to the style, Fritts lager will satisfy. “
