About This Beer
Camden Hells PerfectDraft Keg captures the essence of great European lagers with a modern British twist. The beer takes its name from the German word Helles, meaning “light,” reflecting its bright, golden hue and refreshing nature. Brewed with traditional German ingredients — including Pilsner malt and Perle and Hallertau hops — it delivers a balance of soft malt sweetness and gentle bitterness.
This lager’s brewing process is meticulously managed, ensuring a clean fermentation and crisp finish. The PerfectDraft format locks in that freshness, giving every pour a creamy head and refreshing fizz — just as it tastes at the brewery taproom in Camden, London.

About the Brewery
Camden Town Brewery was founded in 2010 by Jasper Cuppaidge and quickly became one of the UK’s most respected modern breweries. Based in North London, Camden is known for its dedication to freshness, quality, and innovation. Their mission was simple: to make the perfect lager for everyone to enjoy — flavourful, refreshing, and consistently fresh.
Camden Hells became their flagship beer, uniting the best of Munich Helles and Pilsner styles. Since then, the brewery has expanded its range to include Pale Ale, Off Menu IPA, and seasonal releases — all brewed with the same commitment to flavour and drinkability.
Food Pairings
Camden Hells Lager pairs beautifully with a wide variety of dishes. Its light malt sweetness complements grilled chicken, fish and chips, or a classic burger. The crisp carbonation cuts through rich foods like sausages, pizza, and fried snacks, while the clean finish makes it a perfect match for spicy Asian dishes. For a simple pairing, serve chilled with pretzels or cheese platters.
