Commercial Description:
Double Pilsner is our tribute to the pilsner style, heavily hopped but balanced with malt and refined on our 5-barrel system. Originally brewed in Bohemia, pilsners were the world's first clear golden lagers and the start of a dramatic revolution in brewing. Today, pilsners are still a revered part of Czech and German life and an inspiration to our brewers.

Tap at the brewery - no sir, I did not like this - first of all, it was way too sweet, with a heavy, honey-ish character - secondly, the hops tasted old and nearly rotting - there was an unpleasant vegetal character in the background, as well as a skuny quality - a booziness reminiscent of malt liquor - meh.

Pours a pleasing clear gold with white head. Nose is melony sweet and salty. On the palate... whoa, is this a Mai Bock? Big malt flavor, good Saaz spice, but then a malty flavored alcoholic hot whop finishes out the flavor. Finish is alcohol dominant with some lingering sweetness. I don’t mind the latter charactersistics due to a preference for Maibocks, but those not preferring such a beer may want to pass on this offering from Odell.

The aroma was an earthy hop smell. The color was clear golden with a bubbly white head. Taste was sticky, slightly sweet, earthy, and good. I liked this, probably the best pilsener I have ever had. It certainly had an “Imperial” feel to it. I now need to go buy a sixer of this for the old fridge. The only thing that suffers here is drinkability but that is to be expected with a Double Pilsener.

This has got a good flavor, but it does have a kick to it. At times you can really taste the alcohol.

Super clear golden body, white head; Big, deep, very nice nose, malt, grain, a little sweet; Super full carbonation, very soft texture, balanced; Lots of exotic fruit aromas in long finish, very balanced.

Draft at Brewery Aug ’08: Poured a golden yellow with not much head. The aroma of a strong beer. The flavor was a very strong beer flavor, very bitter. Some sweet malts but still very bitter. Overall, can I say it again, bitter.

12 oz bottle. Aroma of sweet malt. Flavor is overly sweet and harsh. Almost malt liquor like. Very thick mouthfeel that coats the tongue.

Bright gold pour with nice sized white head. Yeast and lemon on the nose. Flavor was yeasty with wheat and sugary lemon hints. Medium body with a corn syrup finish.
