Mikkeller Draft Bear is a heavyweight Imperial Pilsner from Copenhagen that amplifies the classic pilsner formula with power and complexity. At 8% ABV and loaded with hops, this beer delivers more character than a standard pils while maintaining the style's signature crispness and drinkability.

It pours pale golden with a thick, persistent head. The nose offers citrus-forward hop character—grapefruit and tangerine—alongside honey and malt sweetness. On the palate, the beer is creamy and full-bodied, with assertive hop bitterness balanced by a solid malt backbone. The finish is dry and bitter with a lingering edge and hints of white pepper, leaving a grapefruit aftertaste that extends well beyond the sip.
