Brewer's Advent Day #17: Propeller Turbo Prop

The small Bosch family-owned brewery is located in the middle of Germany. Hans-Chrisitan Bosch is the 11th generation to run the company. His ancestors founded the brewery in 1705.

In 2014, Hans-Christian developed the Propeller brand to complete the classic range of german beer styles. Propeller is the craft beer line of the brewery. The beers are called "Aufwind" (upwind), "Nachtflug" (night flight), "Looping" and "Turbo Prop." Everything revolves around aviation.

Turbo Prop is an Imperial Pilsner, which is the very strong version of the beer style German Pilsner. More alcohol, more hops, more of everything. Pilsner with Turbo!

Honey notes and the full-bodied, soft mouthfeel come from the pale malts. The German hop varieties Herkules (for bitterness) and Saphir (for aromas) are typical for a Pilsner, in Turbo Prop they were supplemented with Citra - dry hopped.

This was my least favorite beer and was the consensus of my beer tasting posse! Very strong hoppy aroma with a bitter taste that was overwhelming and not pleasing!

I liked it! Mine seemed a bit darker and maybe even less carbonation? Mine did not really tast like a pils at all, I think it might have been from an off-batch? But it still tasted nice & rich,I enjoyed it!

This one is in the calendar every year it seems. Not bad but not my favorite. It’s a touch on the hoppy side for me but not over the top, I’ll still finish it.

It's like a Pilsner masquerading as an IPA.

This beer had a very nice sweet smell. Mine seemed to be a darker amber color compared to yours. I immediately noticed the low carbonation and I immediately think it might be flat but for the nice head. It was nice to hear you explain it. This was a very informative show and I noted that our host actually used speech cards so as not to forget anything. It was not distracting or too obvious, but as a former Speech and Debate coach I say bravo!
