Boulevard Reverb ....

Tonight I am having a Reverb Imperial Pilsner.  It is a summer seasonal from the Smokestack Series from Boulevard Brewing Company.  7.7% ABV is listed on the 1 pint, 9.4 ounce bottle.  The web site shows 32 IBUs.

This beer poured with a medium, slightly off white head.  Beer color is a paler, bright yellow.  The aroma is mild, with some lemon/citrus and wheat.  The taste has some nice spice/pepper, grains and a light bitterness that is reminiscent of citrus rind.  Higher carbonation.  Medium in strength.  Somewhat higher alcohol leaves just a little warmth.  The finish is dry, and you are left with a dry, slightly bitter aftertaste.  Definitely a pilsner, but amped up with some spice, citrus and higher alcohol notes.
