Commercial Description:
Tuppers' Hop Pocket Pils is made via a complex hopping schedule which includes dry hopping for weeks over whole-flower Saaz and Mt. Hood hops. Also used are Saaz, Mittelfruh, Spalt and Mt. Hood in the kettle. The beer is bottled and keg conditioned which provides very fine carbonation and a fine head.

Currently not produced (as of 12/31/07) Hopefully it will find a new home!

Bottle, #400 Hazy yellow pour with huge head. Light pilsy aroma and flavor. Pretty bad. I literally didn’t finish it with dinner at a restaurant. Avoid this one!

Shared by Bill: Light yellow pour with a nice frothy white head. Aroma is grainy, with fresh lemon citrus. Very malty backbone here, but surprisingly bitter and full-flavored for the style. This is a pilsner for people who drink IPAs.

Pours from 12 oz bottle a lovely, hazy straw color. Aroma of hops, malts, biscuity yeast and straw. Flavour of malts, yeast a bit of hops and citrus. Extremely smooth and tasteful beer. An excellent pils!

I don’t drink a lot of pils, but I like this one. It’s intensely hoppy. Pours a lovely gold. It likes to be served cold on a hot day. Full-bodoed. slightly citrusy, a perfect session beer for being outside fishing, or playng softball, or grilling burgers, or just sitting on the porch with friends.

Slightly hazy gold pour with fluffy off- white head. Fresh Saaz aroma and flavor. Plenty of malt character. Clean, crisp and easy to drink, I cant believe I hadn’t tried this one!
