Beer Review: Red Hook Rope Swing Summer Pilsner

Typical golden pilsner hue, but anything but the typical bland pilsner taste. Red Hook usually comes through and they did it again. During the last year it seems like pilsners are making a comeback in the craft beer business, starting with the Sam Adams Noble Pils. Rope Swing pours a bright golden with a frothy white head that is surprisingly firm for a lager. Some banana and clove like you might expect from a Hefeweizen. In the running!
