An intense hop experience. Yes, we're a little obsessed with hops. Every autumn for over twenty years, Jim Koch has traveled to one of the oldest hop growing regions in the world, the Hallertau region of Bavaria Germany, to hand select the Noble hops for our beers, including the Hallertau Mittelfrueh variety. This special variety is considered to be one of the best in the world. Samuel Adams® Hallertau Imperial Pilsner is a celebration of these extraordinary hops. This beer is one of the hoppiest in the world. With the first sip there’s an explosion of some of the world's finest hops. And we mean “explosion” in a good way. This bold brew highlights the spicy, citrus flavors and aromas of the Hallertau Mittelfrueh hop that is abundant in the recipe. The Hallertau Mittelfrueh hop is prized for its delicate flavor rather than purely for its level of bitterness. As a result, the high levels of these hops give the beer an intense flavor without being overpowering. The beer remains well balanced from beginning to end, and continues to always be, well, "hoppy," providing hop lovers with an amazing beer drinking experience.
