Nov 20, 2008 Bottle. Pours clear gold with a white head. The aroma is sweet juicy malt with fragrant hops. The flavor has a strong floral hop profile with a long hoppy finish. Very nice.

Nov 20, 2008 Bottle. Aroma of huge, sticky, floral hops, big toasted biscuit malt, some citrus. Flavor of all those sticky hops with the malt showing more earthiness, some tart fruits. Bitter finish. Lovely.

Nov 19, 2008 Crushed with Jakebra. Some nast on the nose. Got some lots of hops, and some poop and nast maybe in the flavor. Lots of bitter and citrus hops, and some citrus nast. More yum than nast though. It’s aight.

Nov 18, 2008 Updated: Nov 27, 2008Golden colour. Lot´s of hops makes this one smell caramel and citrus. The flavor is intensely hoppy. But it´s hoppy in another way compared to a standard IPA. It dosen’t taste citrus at all. Very bitter.

Nov 18, 2008 Bottle. Pours dark rich gold with minimal head. Smells very piney and grassy. Alot of hops. Tastes very good, cross between a good pilsner and a good IPA. Tons of hops. Bitter, with some earthy tones, sweet and then followed by grainy malts. This is one of Sam Adams better beers.

Nov 17, 2008 golden body, fluffy white head, not much lacing. nose is musty grain, but rather airy. flvor is sweet grain, offset nicely by a hoppy bitterness. muth-feel is a little frizzy, lightly bitter, dry finish. i rather enjoyed this beer.

Nov 2, 2008 Almost not a pilsner... tastes more like an IPA. Still has a slight pilsner flavor to it, but the massive amount of hops in this beer overpower the appeal of a light pilsner. If this were toned down just a tad, it would be an excellent imperial pilsner. This is a good beer, but I still prefer the Brooklyn brewery offering in this style category.
