AN IMPERIAL PILSNER FIT FOR BLOTTING OUT THE SUN Bold. Sharp. Golden. Like an axe used to cleave the bitter tongue of its drinkers, Day Slayer is here to delight in the destruction of your palate. Deep in the darkest reaches exists an elite group of brewers formed in the image of chaos. Destined to ravage the earth, sowing bitterness upon the tongues of beer drinkers everywhere, the warrior brewers of Maine Beer, Societe Brewing and Stone Brewing have sharpened their axes and grown in might and fury, anticipating this day of reckoning. A swath of nobly-hopped damnation has been carved, eradicating the sun, yet lulling you into confidence with its soft golden hue. Day Slayer is here to destroy the weak and huddled masses, unleashing upon the world a mouth-shattering crescendo of palate destroying hops, fermented with the finest of Pilsner strains, delivering a beer as sharp as their blades. Enjoy fresh. Rock hard. Tasting Notes: Bold in character, this clean and crisp imperial pilsner has intense bready character before turning sharply bitter with hints of pink peppercorns on the mid-palate. Finishes clean and dry.

    Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 9 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 9

    Rated April 2017, 22oz bomber pours with a crystal clear pure gold body that supports a thin light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up spicy malt nuanced garlic hops, a green smelling herbal hoppiness and then a semi soft grapefruit note. The taste delivers smooth slightly sweetened grapefruit and then growing spicy bitter hops. To midway a bitter floral hoppiness joins in at just the right level. Another sip and the malt thickened grapefruit hop bitterness and slight juiciness, bitter spicy hops and modest floral hops all meld and play well together. It becomes more and more floral as it warms. The lager sensation is very light and possibly imagined. Very nice brew.

    Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 7

    Pours clear golden with a thick, frothy eggshell head. Aroma offers zesty citrus, resiny hop, and even a little roasted vegetable character. Flavor features tangy malt, zesty hops and tart citrus, with more emphasis on the malt and hops and less on the fruit; a vegetable hint pops up now and then. Mouthfeel delivers good body and fair fizz. Slay the day!
