Lagunitas Brewing Company Imperial Pils Imperial Pils/Strong Pale Lager at 8.6% ABV (C$7.95 at Sundance Wine Market, 650 ml, no bottle date or best before)
Appearance: clear pale gold with one fat finger of pillowy head, excellent retention and lacing. (5/5) Aroma: pale malt, grassy, stone fruit, floral. (7/10) Taste: moderate-high sweet, mild bitter. (7/10) Palate: light somewhat slick body, moderate carbonation, medium duration warming finish. (4/5)
Beefy beast of a pilsener. Starts off hoppy but that fades and it becomes a slick, hot malt bomb. On the up side, that means it can keep up with my Ratlami Sev snackies. (15/20)
7.5/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
