Jan 9, 2009 Been sitting on this for a while. It says bottled in 2007. The aroma is light, malty, not much to it. The appearance is an orange/copper color, fully diminishing head a little lacing. The flavor is bitter, a little acidic, has a grain taste kinda like cereal. Not bad, probably sat on it too long. OK, as I’m still drinking this, it’s tasting a lot better - creamy, mellow leaves a nice feel in the mouth.

Nov 30, 2008 Bottle. Pours with a large, white head, excellent lacing, and a nice yellow body. Aromas of citrus, a bit of pear, and some cereal. Lively carbonation with a creamy, slick texture. Long duration and nice bitter finish. Overall a good lager that I would much rather drink than those from AB or Miller.

Nov 19, 2008 Pours golden, white head.
Aroma, malty, fruity (grapefruit), has all the aroma of an strong imp. lager/pilsner.
Taste, lightly hoppy, malty (pine/fruity). Has the signature Dogfish Head, with hints of grapefruit, light caramel malts. Aftertaste leaves a light hoppy finish, with the abv being well present.

Nov 18, 2008 Hazy gold with a frothy white head. Corn and citrus nose. Flavor is similar yet rather syrupy and sweeter with some honey. Mediocre pilsner at best, mediocre beer at best.

Nov 17, 2008 labeled as ’dogfish head noble experiment hurrah for golden era imperial pilsner’. golden color, moderate white head, nice lacing. a good looker. aroma of corn (hopefully not syrup), grain, malt. flavor is corn, grain, hops, marred by a hint of a metallic taste. thick, full-bodied, dry finish. pretty big beer at 9% abv, but the alcohol is weel hidden, until you get up to walk.
