Released March 24th 1979 Overkill is the second studio album Motörhead released in 1979 and was listed among the 100 Greatest Heavy Metal Albums of All Time.

It's a ferocious, ear-jarring and eye-watering album, perfectly showcasing Motörhead's trademark style of dirty no holds barred rock’n’roll delivered with a punk snarl and raw heavy metal attitude that forces itself into your mind, body and soul.

Overkill Pilsner was crafted with this in mind. Based on a Czech pilsner style with the late hop addition of Styrian Wolf hops which, adds a gentle fruity taste to its solid malty backbone. Crisp, clean and very refreshing but with a little bite!

Copenhagen 17/11 2024. 44 cl can from Meny, Vermlandsgade, Kbh. S. The cover from Motorhead's second album from 1979 on the can. Camerons seems to have found a venue for beer among Metalheads.

Pours clear golden yellow with a mid-sized white head. Stable. Settles as 0,2 cm thick layer of foam just covering the surface of the beer. Moderate lacing.

Aroma is moderately intense with a sweet malty odor mingling with some sharp grains and a bit of citrus. Sweet pale malts, bread and cereal. Citrus and a bit of grass.

Strong carbonation. Thin, watery, lively and tingling texture. A bit fizzy.

Flavor is moderately intense with a medium strong sweetness fllowed by a slightly more moderate bitterness. Aftertaste is a bit thin. Bitter. Lingers shortly. Finish is watery.

Not terrible. But certainly a Underkill.
