Very hoppy & tasty!

Samuel Adams Imperial Pilsner

This lager is made with fresh Bavarian hops, straight off the vines from the 2005 harvest in Germany, and packs an 8.8 percent alcohol content that's twice as strong as most popular beers. Boston Beer Co. is brewing only 60,000 24-oz. bottles, which are due to begin arriving in stores in November.

From North Coast Brewing Co.

That bottle looks a lot different from their other ones. I like how that guy is pointing at the hops like "check out these hops"
And he should be. One hell of a hoppy beer with great complexity and dimension.

I wish I could drink beer, but it's not worth the headache I get just from one. I'll have to stick to vodka, scotch, bourbon...

How come you get a headache? That other stuff is more likely to give me one....

Man, I don't know. If I drink one beer, it's headache time within an hour. Sometimes even before I finish. I can drink tequila (the good stuff), vodka, scotch, just about any distilled spirits with no problem...wierd, huh?

You're a beer man...Best stick with what you know :lookaroun
I think if liquor came in small bottles to try, I would drink more. It just sucks to get a whole bottle of something you don't like.

Ah, I thought that was usually just average crap. I'll have to take a closer look next time. I'm usually browsing the microbrews
