We just moved in two new draft beers on the “heavy rotation” handles.  The Victory Storm King Stout and Bend Brewing Company Imperial Pilsner will be replacing the Black Butte Porter and Green Lakes Organic.  Both the new beers are Imperial in nature and quite delicious. 

Pilsner is not the first thing that comes to mind when you see this beer in the glass.  It’s a bit darker in color than a traditional pilsner, but that is most-likely due to the fact that this is an imperial beer (more alcohol from more sugars that were caramelized during the boil).  This is one unique beer with a solid hop presence that is smooth from start to finish.  Thanks to Tonya for letting us give this a try. 

The Victory Storm King Stout is a substantial beer but goes down smooth.  It has a rich hoppy aroma and roasty, malty, chocolaty goodness that all just feels right from the tip of your tongue to the warm glow of satisfaction in your belly. 

Brewerman had a taste last night and has a few things to say about the Imperial duo.
