Dogfish Head My Antonia
This here beer is a lagerific departure for our ale-centric brewery. A marriage of old world tradition and new world innovation, My Antonia is brewed with pilsner malt and continually-hopped with a blend of Noble and West Coast hops.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy golden color. Aroma and taste are biscuit, floral, and some spices.
Bottle at home. Yeah so like I said, I was a bit distracted when I was drinking this beer and didn’t keep a note. Sorry.. however, I do remember it was pretty awesome.
Pours orangey with a foamy head. Aroma is citrus fruits, oranges, Clementines those kind of fruits. Taste is smooth, little sweetness with a bitter finish. Quite a nice beer
Amarelo alaranjada, espuma branca, boa formação e retenção. Aroma misto de fermento, lúpulo e um pouco de malte, sem características específicas. Boa, vale experimentar.
On tap @ BA Sundbyberg. Light bread, fruit and loads of honey. The flavor grows a lot on you, to the worse.
Rather hoppy Imerpial Pils. It has a nice thick and soft texture with a sweet (vanilla-like) aroma.
Cloudy with a white top. Strong hopy aroma. Sweet hopy full taste with bitter notes. Easy drinking despite the 7.5%.
Orange brown beer with a big foamy head.
Smell is nicely citric and metallic with lots of minerals and subtle fruitiness, cherries, pears. Also some coriander and white pepper. Bready.
Taste is dry sour bitter with an astringent finish. Touch of chanpagne-like spiciness full of flowers and spices. Bit of alcoholic bitterness and some malt.
Hazy yellow. Huge white head. Sweet floral aroma. Taste follows nose. Little bitterness.
Super sweet enticing nose. Big fluffy creamy sticky white head. Cloudy hazy deep unfiltered yellow. Excellent carbonation which leads to a soothing tickling sensation in the mouth. Just don’t like the ’Imperial Pilsner’ designation. Far far too heavy to have any connection with a pilsner. So much better when not railroaded into a style designation.
Mild yellow grayish color. The smell is a bit awesome and refreshing. The taste is round, sweet and bitter. Really good beer that is far from what I would call a pils.
A pilsner with a mix of malts and hops but a nice blend that gives it a good flavor and a good palate with an overall treat.
Pale, hazy orangish yellow with tall fizzy white head. Aroma of bread and hops. Nice hoppy flavor, almost like a fresh hop ale. Good.
Pours orange and slightly hazy with a big white head. Slight floral hoppy aroma. Tastes slightly bready, flowery, and bitter. Moderate carbonation. Finishes slightly sweet.
Bottle from Plonk (May 2014). Slightly hazy golden, frothy white head, grassy, citrusy hops, quite sweet, sugary malt, some doughy yeast evident, full body, strong lingering bitterness. Love it.
(Draught at Man in the Moon, Stockholm, 15 Sep 2014) Hazy golden colour with frothy, white head. Malty, fruity nose with citrus, grass, peaches and a touch of resin. Malty, hoppy taste with notes of citrus, grapefruit, grass, bread and a generous resiny bitterness in the finish. More than medium body, with balanced sweetness. Fresh lager with a generous hop profile. Nice one.
Appearance is hazy straw yellow. Aroma is of citrus. Taste is oily slightly heavy really pleasant amount of bitterness lingering. Flavour is nice with citrus and slight pine coming through.
750 ml bottle from Biggie Wine & Liquor. Bottled in: 2012 C 16:40. Bright gold and light hazy appearance with a lingering white head and light lacing. Aroma of toasted grains, earthy notes, old hops, musty yeast, pilsner malts and light citrus. Similar flavor, musty, yeasty and grainy with mild bitterness and light sweetness. Medium body with a pretty smooth feel and a mild bitter finish. Overall, held up pretty well for being bottled almost 3 years ago.
Bottle at the Bartons Arms, Birmingham. Pours a cloudy orange-yellow with a large tight white head. Scent of apricot, yeasty bread, a bit of hard citrus and grassy hop. Taste is bitter with a tempering fruity sweetness. Some savoury bready flavours leading up to a lip smacking bitter finish. Superb.
Hazy bronze colour with dense head. Peach, melon and grass aroma. Mellow fruit taste, balanced bitterness making up for rather short taste.
Citrusy aroma and a strong ( too strong for me) fruity flavour and back of nose aroma. Nice malt, spice backbone.
Bottle (elegant design). Already when opened, and before pouring up the liquid, aromas of citrus came from the bottle. Very much citrus indeed. Good taste, finish etc., probably due to the higher alcohol contents. Would maybe not try again, but an interesting beer.
Fresh and hoppy aroma with some citrus/fruit hints. A bit hazy light orange, very nice top, white foamy... Perfect
Taste is also fresh, I feel a strong taste of passion fruit, refreshing.
The palete is medium body with a soft carbonation and an almost oily texture. The finish is long and fresh with a hint of Long Island ice tea.. Sort of.. Sweet but with enough alcohol and bitterness to create a nice refreshing balance....
Like it a lot
Smak och doft av humle, jäst, citrus med toner av citron, gräs, persika och ananas. Lagom sötma, bra beska, en aning torr och sträv. God kombination.
little smell, stronger taste. hardly foam but nice carbon. when a Pils falls in love with california pale ale. bitter (citrus), sweet (maple syrup? 7.5%!), refreshing.
"wonderful aroma...pushing a 9...pils malt, generous hops...great balance. cloudy yellow/gold with fluffy tan head. flavor sweet and bitter, crisp, satisfying. gotta get another boulevard to have a head to head, but one of the best pils lagers i’ve had. oddly hoppier in aroma, and maybe in flavor, than atleast 1 DFH ipa."
smell has a grape undertone to it that is slightly sweet and good....taste is more bitter than it smells...hops smooth out a bit as you drink...just barely qualifies as a good beer....
It has a light hazy with a nice golden hue and a tall rocky head to top it off. (The last glass has a much heavier haze.)The head has excellent retention and it clings to the glass leaving lots of thick chunky lacing behind. This is lovely and full of fruity pale and biscuity sweetness with juicy hops. Notes of pineapple, peach and floral/citrusy hops fill the nose. To start with I must say that there was less hop bitterness than I was expecting from the continually-hopped beer. What was there was in very good balance. As with the aroma I picked up nice tropical fruit notes on sweet pale biscuity base, complemented with citrusy hops. The finish is fruity and balanced with pleasant hop bitterness. On the palate it has a firm medium feel with nice lively and balanced carbonation.
This is more like a pilsner, than anything. Pours a somewhat cloudy golden color. Aroma was typical pilsner malt with some spice and hop notes. Taste was on the bitter side, but refreshing, with a good balance of malt and hops. There was a hint of lemon. Emphasis was on the noble hops rather than west coast hops. Full-bodied strong mouthfeel and a grainy texture. Still very drinkable, and very good.
Foggy orange yellow pour from 22oz bottle. Weird taste. Good though. Graham cracker and earthy wheat taste. Sweet grassy aroma. Had at lake. Not bad
