Pours bright clear gold with a voluminous, dense ivory head. Lots of thick lacing. Smells of fruity malt and citrusy hops.
Taste is dominated by a strident, bitter, orange peel hop flavor. Some nice sweetish malt too, hints of lemon. Mouth is crisp, medium bodied and aftertaste is dominated by the hops. 100% Sterling, huh? Gives this pilsner a nice kick and sets it apart from most. Pretty damn good. If you want to experience Sterling hops solo, this would be the beer to try.

Aug 22, 2008 22oz bottle. Pours hazy, golden yellow with a fizzy white head, no lace. Smells super sweet and malty, very nice. Tastes sweet malty and citrusy hoppy, nice hop presence on the taste. Full body, good carbonation.

Jul 28, 2008 Murky yellow color with some foamy head. Sterling hops seem good, but I would have liked to have more of them in this brew because it just tastes like an average pilsner. Sorta tastes like a better version of Labatt.

Jul 26, 2008 Yellow and clear with an ok head. Too light for a Marzen and a little cloudy for a pilsner. Slight smell of bananas.

Jun 12, 2008 Rogue Überfest Pilsner is a cloudy, blonde lager with a fluffy white head that leaves great lacing. It has a grassy, lemony aroma with notes of bread and malt. It has a medium-light body. It’s smooth with a crisp finish. It is simple, amply bitter, has good balance and tastes a bit lemony. It’s a little plain, but the Sterling hops are unique. Not bad.
