COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Victory Amber Lager: Orginally made to the specifications of Pat Patton, owner of Hero's Restaurant in Manassas, VA. Victory Amber is a soft, smoot tasting beer made with an ale-style recipe using lager fermenation and conditioning techniques with the following malts: Two-Row Pale, Munich, Carapils, and Caramel. Perle, Willamette, and English Kent Golden hops are used. The beer is unfiltered and the remaining yeast, high in Vitamin B, gives the beer its unique opalescent amber color.

Draught at Old Dominion Brewhouse, Washington DC
Blond color, big head. Not the aroma (too light) nor the color reveal anything amber, just the flavor shows some nutty touch. Correctly bitter.

hopscotch (7289) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - APR 4, 2005
Draft... Lightly hazy, golden lager. Not even close to being amber :-( No head. The aroma and flavor are fruity, strawy and gristy. Perfectly balanced. Medium-bitter. Light-bodied and fizzy. Crisp, clean finish.

DocLock (5776) - Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA - NOV 5, 2004
Deep golden/straw in color, with hopcit, malt, and slightly gin-like aroma. Tastes malty, with hops, citrus, some toffee, and cabernet at the finish. Not bad at all.

Draught at Old Dominion for breakfast - RBSG DC 06 Pale gold, no head or lacing. Nose of musky malt and stale hop. Light caramel. The flavor is balanced. Boring lager without many astounding characteristics. Finishes is toasty. eh.
