Commercial Description:
Summit Grand is the first pilsener brewed by Summit Brewing Company. Developed by our Brewmaster Horace Cunningham, Summit Grand follows the tradition of Bohemian Style Pilseners. This style refers to the many great pilseners that originated in what is now known as the Czech Republic. Our Summit Grand is brewed with select malts and both domestic and imported hops. Golden in color, with just the right amount of body, Summit Grand is truly the perfect beer for any occasion.

Sampled at the Summit tasting at Blacklick Wine & Spirits on 5/14/09. Pours clear gold with a medium white head. Aroma of malt and lager yeast with a bit of hop. Malty and yeasty flavor with a dry finish. Very thin.

Clear, golden, bubbly. Light hoppy aroma, a little grainy, lemony. Tastes about the same. Light bodied, slightly watery, but easy to drink. Refreshing in the summertime.

Just an average, run-of-the-mill pilsner. 10 karat color and a 1/4 inch clean white head. Aroma is lemongrass, citrus, and malt. Medium mouthfeel.

Golden pour with a light white head. Aroma of grassy, leafy hops. Flavor is pale malt and a big leafy hops finish .Finish is almost shockingly bitter for a pils. Pretty good pils.

Hazy yellow with a macro looking white head that pretty much just sits there. Aroma of light fruit, pale malt and heavy noble hops. Taste of burnt malt and mild fruit with a hoppy finish. Somewhat astringent and a bit chewy. Next.

Bottle courtesy of Dalzale. Pours gold with a thin white head. Smells of caramel, some earthy hints. Tastes sweet and citrussy with a light bitter finish.
