Commercial Description:
Golden Revolution heralds the arrival of a new Czech pilsner standard. This handcrafted, dry hopped imperial pilsner sends a powerful message to the pilsners that have come before. Echoing the words of one of the Velvet Revolution's heroes as he dismissed the communists, Golden Revolution proclaims: "Thank you, now go away".

The Dan Journal #196. Tasted 7/10/08. 750ml cork and cage. Bright golden hue with a sparse head. Bready and caramel aromas with a touch of corn. Bright piney hop nose. Full bodied and super sweet. Smooth mild alcohol in the middle of the palate that increases as the finish lingers. Honey notes with a dry finish. Candy sweet and slightly off. But a fun drink!

Bottle. Pours golden with thin white head. Aroma has honey, dough, grassy hops. Flavor is sweet, sugary, slightly alcoholic, some light basement flavors, with slight herbal hop bitterness lingering in the finish along with a touch of alcohol. I liked the idea of a czech imperial pilsner and although the product itself falls just a little short of expectations, it’s still pretty good and actually is exceptional if it is held up to Euro Strong Lager standards as opposed to it’s american counterparts.

Clear gold with a fizzy head. Mild aroma of spicy black pepper and pale bready malt. Smooth medium body. Nice pale malt sweet flavor to start, with some bittersweet spicy hops kicking in at the finish to add some balance. Not too bad.

750ml bottle. Honey sweet to the point of being cloying. Golden body with big-bubbled, white head that diminishes. The aroma presents honeycomb, alcohol, spice and caramel. The flavor is heavily sweet and lightly bitter, especially in the finish. Tastes of honey, caramel and some biscuit/grass lager/pilsner notes underneath. Medium body with slightly sticky texture. Somewhat hot alcohol finish. Way too sweet.

Pours a slightly cloudy golden color with a thin white head. The aroma is very sweet, some hops, malt and wild flowers were also detected. Flavor of hops, malt, flowers and strong sweetness. The body is medium with a creamy texture and soft carbonaiton. If this is meant to be a pilsner, it’s way too sweet, it’ too bad since the hops are quite flavorfull.
