Sweetwater Dank Tank Magnum IP

22 oz bottle in the usual Dank Tank presentation. I’ve had this a few times before now, this is the bottled review.
Poured into the DFH glass, the beer is truly a deep golden color with (considering the ABV) a decent head and some retention.
The nose gives plenty of fusel alcohol notes but it’s not overpowering. A little spice in the aroma too.
The tastes give up the usual (and expected) malty, alcoholic bitterness. There is some white pepper (especially in the finish), and a little dryness in the back end. Maybe a touch of honey coming through in the sweetness. Finishes with some extra bitterness and a little mire alcohol.
Also, the mouthfeel produces the expected viscosity and syrupy nature.
Very drinkable for the style, but it’s all relative since this is a beer that can only be consumed in relatively small quantities. Still, if you happen to be seeking one of these Imperial Pilsners then this will do a decent job.
