Krampus (Imperial Helles Lager)
Appearance- On draft into a 12 oz flute. Pours a clear orangeish color with a creamy two finger head, good retention and lacing. Smell- Pine hops all over the place. Taste- Has an Imperial IPA flavor to it, balanced with some toasted and bready malts. A bit earthy and floral in the taste, but pine rises up above the rest. Not overley bitter, a slight alcohol warming. Mouthfeel- Medium body and carbonation, incredibly smooth. Overall- Very suprised by this one, in a great way! Imperial pilsners are usually not my thing, but this has a great hop presence, drinks like a big IPA. Seek this out!
