Aspecto de lager, amarillenta y pajiza. Poca espuma. Olor a lager con más alcohol. Sabor a lager con mucho alcohol. Muy amarga y poco agradable. Fuerte sabor alcoholico. Mediocre.

May 11, 2015 (1st rating, 4.2/5): Intense golden hue. White head, swiftly disappearing. Aroma is porridge, iron, honey and wheat flour. Powerful sweet start. Full body. Bitter ending. Long sweet aftertaste with hints of honey. Very interesting. Aug 7, 2024 (2nd rating, 0.8/5): Same appearence as stated before. Aroma is cardboard, esters, ash, phenols. Mouth is booze, unbalanced, hangover-inducing. This is no longer an Imperial Pils, but a terrible malt liquor. Went down the drain.

Helder geel bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is lichtzoet en sterk. Lijkt wat op een Grolsch kanon of een Gulperner gladiator. Best wel goed te drinken maar niet bijzonder, er zijn verschillende van dit soort bier die vergelijkbaar zijn.
