| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 1, 2006 12 oz bottle. Hazy golden color with lasting bubbly white head that laced the glass. Pleasant aroma like you’d expect in a good pilsner; nice mix of cereal grain maltiness, a touch of caramel, and sprucy, grassy eurohops. Crisp and dry with a touch of hop bitterness at the end. Very good pilsner. Hangover (770), Atlanta, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 23, 2006 Clear golden pour with a lasting, frothy white head and some nice visible lacing. Hoppy aroma, but very light with some grassiness. Lively mouthfeel. Bready malts with some lingering hops into the finish. Dry, and crisp finish. Not a hint of corn, funk or anything crappy I normally associate with pilsners. Really good! Wish they were all like this. Bigsilky (322), Charleston, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Apr 21, 2006 One of the few reasons I welcome hot weather.......Poured into my crystal Pilsner flute with ease and a rambuncious head that had to be leveled off. Nice Czech hop on the nose, very clean and a little piney. I rarely see such a beutiful beer as this with a torrent of bottle carbonation rushing it’s way to the top. The firm and dry malt body reeks of germanic and domestic hop varieties and help with a slightly citrus-driven bitterness and rounds the beer out nicely.

| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 1/5 | 5/10 | 1/5 | 10/20 | Apr 19, 2006 12oz bottle. I’m a big pils fan, especially when plenty of hops are employed but this one just lacks any refinement. As with the hop pocket ale, this beer just seems kinda boring to me. A step up from a Bud but otherwise not much of a pils. mctous (119), Herndon, Virginia, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 14, 2006 Tupper’s Pils resembles Dominion Victory Lager (also unfiltered) without Victory’s caramel malt and with much more hops. Tupper’s Pils pours with a frothy head, fine carbonation, and a pale amber color clouded by yeast. Its aroma and flavor favor the hops over the malt, with a very long hop finish and little residual sugar. More malt character would improve the balance. SSSteve (2090), Atlanta, Georgia, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 28, 2006 Bottle. Poured clear amber with a large creamy white head that was lasting with good lacing. Good flowery hoppy aroma. Medium body with soft carbonation. Well balanced hoppy bitter sweet flavor with a moderate bitter finish. lethe (168), Stony Brook by way of Cincinnati, New York, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 22, 2006 Modest, slow pour yields enormous, expansive head that is frothy white atop a hazy off-yellow. Nose is dry and peppery with an ebullience that matches the carbonation throughout. Palate is tingly, light and appetizing. Dry hop mouth-coating goodness dominates the flavor that also smacks heavily of bready yeast. This was a several-year-old bottle and was decidedly ’off’ in balance. Nevertheless, this was a fun and original take on a heavy hop pils.
