ROCHESTER, N.Y., March 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The Genesee Brewing Company recently won the Governor's Craft Beer Cup, at the New York State Brewers Association 7th annual New York State Craft Beer Competition for its Genesee Brew House Helles lager.
Genesee Brew House Brewmaster Dean Jones, who handcrafted the Helles lager, accepted the award stating, "Thirty-one years in beer, from World Cup to Beer Cup Awards to the Great American Beer Festival, the best award comes from my home state of New York, the place I love. This is just amazing, go New York beer!"
The Genesee Brew House Helles lager is a medium bodied, true German lager with upfront malty/toasted Pilsner malt characters. This bier balances hop bitterness with low noble hop aroma. Clear, refreshing and incredibly drinkable with a 5.0 percent ABV.
Along with the 2023 Governor's Cup, the Genesee Brewery walked away with the Best New York State Beer (Genesee Brew House Helles), Gold in the Light Lager – Traditional Category (Genesee Brew House Helles), and Bronze in the Porter (Non-Imperial) Category (Genesee Brew House Robust Porter).
