Beer Review: Fat Heads Gudenhoppy Pils

Serving Type: Draft

ABV: Five percent

Appearance: Gudenhoppy Pils is a pretty shade of straw gold. It's not as clear as most pilsners, but it provides the eye with a decent haze within the body. There isn't much visible carbonation, but there' s a somewhat thick, white head atop the brew.

Smell: This beer's aroma consisted of plenty of bready and biscuity malts. There's also a burst of hop aroma that fills up your nostrils. In my opinion, the hops tend to be more dominant that what I prefer in a beer of this style.

Taste: The dominant hop aroma translates to the flavor as well. The hop flavor is a tad obnoxious. The biscuit flavor on the finish translates to the taste fairly well and adds an extra bit of floral sweetness to balance everything out.

Overall Rating: 

A really decent pilsner. The hop character is a little strong for my tastes. Many might like that type of flavor, though. The floral sweetness adds an interesting nook in this beer's flavor.
