Malts: German Pils and Carapils
Hops: Amarillo, Saaz, Hersbrucker and Tettnang
We call this beer an Uber Pils - a pilsner style bock lager. Rich, malty, and well rounded but with a firm structure of noble hops. Surprisingly pale in color for such a powerful, complex beer. Available year round beginning Feb. 05

"Sampled at the Royal Mile Pub in Wheaton, MD. Clear amber with a light, white head. Faint nose of light malt. Very smooth mouthfeel; light-to-medium bodied. Clean, pleasant flavors of solid fruit-sweet malt and somewhat mild hop bitterness. Crisp hop finish; well-hidden alcohol. Very drinkable."

"Fairly malty with a touch of citrus, this high-gravity brew pours a beautiful golden color with an average-sized head, the citrus detectable in the nose. Coming in at 7.25 ABV, this slightly tangy/spicy brew is sure to please."

[3] Review by Cybercat from Atlanta, GA, USA who has tried this beer once. (6/15/2008 12:38:51 AM)
"This one comes out of the tap a semi-transparent honey golden. Aroma has a nice balance of maltiness and hoppiness, but is not complex. Flavor is mouth-filling, fairly malty, with some hop bitterness and fruity hints. It goes down smoothly and leaves a pleasantly bitter hoppy aftertaste."

[4] Review by changeup45 from Orlando, Florida, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (3/16/2008 1:57:21 PM)
"The more I have this the more I like it (when I first purchased it I did not know it was an Imperial Pils). Pours a golden color, perhaps darker shade of gold topped with a nice thick creamy head that leaves a lot of lacing on the glass. Aroma is hoppy with lemons, some malts and a faint overall tang presence. Slightly bitter hoppy flavor with sweet citrus fruits mixed in and balanced by rich malts. Crisp, clean, creamy and a great hop/malt balance. Slightly sour, tart lemon aftertaste. I can find this easily, it is bold and flavorful while being refreshing and it is reasonably priced. "
