/> <strong>Country </strong>- United States<br
/> <strong>Type </strong>- American Imperial Pilsner</p><p><strong>Appearance </strong>- Poured a cloudy straw color that was almost orange.  Nice sized white head.</p><p><strong>Smell </strong>- Quite hoppy for a pilsner with hints of floral notes.</p><p><strong>Taste </strong>- A sweet hoppy taste.  There was a significant citrus taste to it but what kind of fruit escapes me.  Finished very smooth.  This is not your typical store bought pilsner.</p><p>I was extremely surprised in how good this one was.  It&#8217;s hoppy indeed but I don&#8217;t think it is overpowering with those bitter hops that you might expect from IPAs or other ales.  I really like the sweetness to it as it stands out but is not over powering.  This was the last bottle I saw in the store and hope that I can find it again as it was a very good one.  Yes this is getting a good rating.</p><p><strong>Overall Grade</strong> &#8211; A</p> <a
