Stone Brewing Enter Night Pilsner

This beer caused a sensation even before its release. No wonder, after all, legendary metal bands don't release their own beer every day. The cold-hopped Pilsner, which is supposed to represent the band Metallica in beer form, was eagerly awaited. And fans of the uncompromising metallers were not disappointed. Appropriately bottled in black cans, the Pilsner not only shines with its logo, but also with its correspondingly fitting contents. Part of Stone Brewing's Arrogant Consortia range, Enter Night Pilsner is also a beer that doesn't want to fit in and be for everyone. It is aggressive, anarchic and different.

Only a genius would come up with the glorious and seemingly absurd idea of creating an extravagant, challenging beer from a down-to-earth, northern German pilsner. Stone Brewing has succeeded in this balancing act together with the wild gang from Metallica: Only the color and the persistent bitterness have remained from the classic pilsner. Instead, a whole lot of hops and the corresponding variety of flavors have been added. The result of this extremely successful crossover is a very drinkable beer that should not only appeal to bikers dressed in black.

Just as the sounds of Metallica sometimes buzz through your head for days on end, one slightly overwhelmed beer drinker describes the enjoyment of Enter Night Pilsner: the taste of the hops is so dominant and overpowering that it stays with you long after you've finished drinking it.
