Mountain Goat Imperial Pilsner (2011)

Style
Imperial Pilsner
ABV

Bitterness
50 IBU

Or more accurately, an Imperial Keller Pilsner, apparently. In other words, unfiltered and designed to be tapped and quaffed asap. It's the second stab at a big ol' pilsner from the Richmond crew, one head brewer Dave Bonighton described as "a Black Forest Wolf in Western Districts sheep's clothing?", a comment that can possibly be ascribed to the fact he came up with it on the day of the brewery's Christmas party. The beer is a strong, unfiltered, cold conditioned "forever", spicy, malty, hoppy lager with an aroma Dave says is "slightly yeasty/spicy, but subtle, with no hint of the booze." It's packed with German Pilsener and Light Munich malts and Czech Saaz Hops and is only going to be appearing at a handful of places outside the brewery. We'll let you know where once they're out there.
