22 oz bottle from NC served in a Belgian snifter. This is an imperial pilsner.
Pours with a clear amber-copper body topped with a semi-durable and off-white head.
The aroma carries some alcohol but features medium malts and spicy hops, with hints of tropical fruits.
The flavor is dominated by spicy hops and caramel malts in about equal measure, with hints of tropical fruits. Mildly bitter overall.
Medium body and near medium carbonation with light warmth.

Nantahala hit this one out of the park. #14 is a refreshing ale that offers a drinkability and the 8.0% abv only rearing its head once you reach the bottom of the 22oz bomber.
A: A very pale yellow, slight haze, with a decent head. 
S: Light bread aroma, and a touch of earthy hops. 
T: Light bread flavor, with a slight tropical fruitiness with hops.
M: Medium in body, with very lively carbonation, the finish is a touch thick.
O: Overall an extremly enjoyable beer.
