| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 28, 2009 Black with a tan head, aroma is licorice/chocolate with noticeable citrus hops. Flavor is very bittersweet with fairly strong hops in the finish. Leaves an almost sticky/resiny aftertaste on the palate. Overall, very well done and interesting, not what I’d expect from something with pilsner in the name. Cletus (5060), Connecticut, USA
