Commercial Description:
Golden Revolution heralds the arrival of a new Czech pilsner standard. This handcrafted, dry hopped imperial pilsner sends a powerful message to the pilsners that have come before. Echoing the words of one of the Velvet Revolution's heroes as he dismissed the communists, Golden Revolution proclaims: "Thank you, now go away".

A hazy light orange pour. Nose is strong of honey and floral with a more subtle honey taste although still sweet taste overall. A spicy slight alcohol finish. A good desert type beer with a strong history.

Light honey and sweet malt aroma. Light golden brown body offers a medium palate. The taste is sweet foremost. Honey and sweet malt--just like the aroma promised. Pilsner yeast is detectable for sure. Enjoyable.

Golden colored with a shade of copper; impeccably clear with medium carbonation. Smells strong and estery, like applesauce, cherries; has some earthy notes and graininess. Tastes sweet and deliciously fruity, again like cherries or red grapes; is candy-like and sugary. Hops are pleasant and earthy with a hint of spice. Has almost no bitterness. Mouthfeel is a tad cloying, but this is otherwise an exquisitely drinkable beer with just a suggestion of being quite fortified with alcohol.

Bottle sampled on 1/10/07: Pours a transparent golden bronze with a thin, wispy-lacing white head. Aroma of sweet biscuity, caramely Belgian malt has some fresh, green Saaz hoppy character. Body starts with a fairly full, rich, sweet pale biscuity malty flavor with a good, fresh green hoppiness toward a bittersweet finish. Lots of pale maltiness throughout is nicely balanced with plenty of authentic hops. An enjoyable brew.

750 ml bottle. I really liked this. I have a thing for these Imperial Pilsners. Sweet aromas with malty caramel and vanilla. Flavors were similar with some hops for balance. Floral, spicy, sweet. Pretty good.

Golden of color with a white head. A sweet aroma of toffee, sweets and sweet malt. A flavor of sweet malt, hae, bitter notes and notes of hops in the finish.

Courtesy of kp. Pours a clear gold with white head. The aroma is sweet malts and some sweet wheat malts. The taste is the same sweet malts and sweet wheat malts noticed in the nose plus the addition of some nice fresh hop spice and floral noble hops that are on par with the malts creating some nice balance. It ends somewhat hoppy in flavor mixed with the sweet malts. It is fresher and more balanced than the DFH version. I liked it. It would be great on a hot Tampa day.

This corked and caged bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a medium sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a transparent strongly carbonated golden and a fair lacing. The mild aroma was malty. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and strongly tingly at the finish mild vinous hop aftertaste. The strong flavor contained notes of hops and mildly vinous. Delicious and one I would certainly buy again.
