Commercial Description:
Golden in color with a dry hop floral aroma and intense hop bitterness supported by a big malty backbone which culminates into a hedonistic mouthfeel. Yee haw!

Pours deep gold into a shaker. Bright white meringue head recedes leaving spider lacing to coat surface. Deep caramel and malt aromas. Creamy and full with upfront caramel and a lasting, dry resin and grapefruit finish.

Bottle poured an orange/coppery color with a huge white head. Aroma of hops lots of hops and some malt. Flavor is of hops and yet nicely malty. A well balanced beer that I really enjoy. It doesn’t really seem like a pilsener to me. More like an IPA

Light yeast aroma with moderate hops. Cloudy gholden color. Fizzy with a medium white head. Starts off hoppy finishing with a fruity yeast taste.

I really like this one. Hopsy but with a malty finish. Nice nose. For a high alcohol beer, you really don’t get much of that taste. It’s masked well. I’ve got to mention the bottle while I’m at it. They are ceramic with the labeling printed on the bottle. No stickers. Very cool.

Swing-top 750 mil ceramic bottle. Nose is on the weaker side.. basic pils. Pour is hued and almost hazy yellow gold. Taste is wonderfully strong.. generous amounts of hops, florals, dry malt, and delicious alcohol. Amazing how bold and rich it is for only 4 ingredients. Reminds me of Pilsner Urquell on steroids. Worth buying again, but I wish it wasn’t so pricey.

On tap at Summits Wayside tavern in Cumming, Ga. This one was a big hit at the Pub Crawl. Poured up a hazy yellow color with a nice white head. Flavor had a good malty presence but the hopos put me in mind of IPA. Very tingly mouthfeel. Excellent rogue

Pours to a hazy dark-yellow color. Wonderful aroma of yeast and hops. Lots of flavor here -- lots of hops, some citrus perhaps, and a lasting bitter finish. Great pallet -- creamy, but not too much so. And that finish -- easily one of my new favorites.

Interesting beer. It's rich, clean, and smooth. It has all the characteristics of a pils, yet departs from the style early on to become something unique. bitter, malty, hoppy, yet balanced and delicious. A gem of a beer, and an outstanding re-definition of the pils style. Reminds me of a rich, sweet Prima Pils. Recommended.
