We brewed Paradise Pilsner with massive amounts of German Pilsner malt and more than 2 pounds/barrel of US Vanguard hops, and American version of the noble German Hallertau Mittlefruh. It was fermented with lager yeast from a Bavarian monastery brewery, then dry-hopped with another pound per barrel of Vanguards. To maximize flavor, we chose not to filter the beer, keeping it in the German kellerbier (cellar beer) style. The result is pale and smooth, slightly cloudy with yeast. The flavor is clean, complex, and malty, balanced with plenty of hops bitterness and fine hop aroma, with a pleasant warming sensation caused by the higher alcohol content. 8.26% ABV

A hazy dark yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet malty with a light touch of hops. The flavor is sweet matly with a strong hop presence for a pilsener - and that being American hops. But calling it an Imperial Pilsener ofcourse demands lots of American hops.

1L Flip Top pours a slightly hazy pale golden with a nice sturdy chunky white head. Lacing is also quite attractive. Light sweet floral notes with honey and slight apricot or other pitted fruits. Flavor is unmistakable "stong lager" ML type kick but is candy coated with plenty of residual sugars and fruity sweetness. Finishes sweet and wet, with rather soft carbonation. I’m just gld I have a few to share this with as 1 liter is about 700ml to much for me.

Overall a very nice pilsener. Golden yellow color is hazy with a bit of whiteish head. Taste is a blend of hops, yeast, breadiness, malts, and floral tones. Intense flavors, yet very clean and crisp.
