2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 cheap (3372) - Cheap Lager in Western, Pennsylvania, USA - OCT 16, 2012
Had a difficult time locating this on the website, mine was labeled Tupper’s hop pocket pils brewed by Old dominion. Mine says lager beer on it but I know I saw keller someplace on the label but can’t see it now! Nice clean aroma from a bottle dated 010407. Pour is full of sediment. Looks like a hefe. Has a little bit of a candy. Taste is a little sweet, has a almost candy sensation about it. Now I sense it in the smell too, that candy thing in there. Unique finish is not too bad but it could have a few more manners.

Bottle. Pale golden, slightly cloudy. Aroma is a little musty. Finish starts slow, becomes bitter then coats the mouth. Overall this pretty good, but not my choice of style.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 madvike (2066) - Middleton, Wisconsin, USA - MAR 15, 2012
Bottle from brewolf...thanks Michael! - Pours a beautiful cloudy light amber, with a big fluffy, foamy white head that forms some mountainous peaks. Sweet bread malt, light and honeyed, with minimal floral/herbal hopping. Smells inviting, though I expected a little more hoppiness. The hops present themselves a bit more in the taste, finishing with a bitter, grassy twinge. The sweetness is still front and center--more than I’d like in a pils--but it’s not overbearing and the whole thing is refreshing. There are some buttery toffee flavors in there as well that are a bit unexpected. Pretty big body for the style with some big, fluffy carbonatoin. All in all a tasty, refreshing beer, but I’d like to see the sweetness dialed back a bit.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 drowland (4975) - Jacksonville, Florida, USA - JAN 16, 2012
1/15/11. 12oz bottle. Slightly unclear golden pour with a small off-white head that fades and laces in chunky spots. Biting aroma of pilsner malt, lemon peel, and grassy hops. Nice malty, pilsner flavor with touches of apple, lemon peel, and lingering bitterness. Nice!
