3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draft at Brass Tap (Wesley Chapel). Pours a clear golden yellow color with a small white foamy head . Lots of sudsy lacing along the glass. Aroma is quite unique with good fruity notes, citrus and some sweetness. Flavor has a nice mixture or bitter citrus zest, and the oily hop flavors in the finish. Dry, crisp mouthfeel. Very interesting offering from Victory.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draft at The Pour House in Westmont, NJ.
Pours a slightly hazy, dark golden yellow color with a two finger frothy white head that slowly fades into a lasting cap. The glass is left coated with chunks of soapy lacing.
Earthy aroma with a fresh grassy hop presence along with subtle spice, pale malt, light fruit and straw.
Medium bodied with a crisp hop bite up front that lingers over the pale malts into a dry finish. Dry and slightly spicy with grass and subtle pine flavor countered by pilsner malt, straw and light fruit. Hoppy but not overly bitter with a some sweetness balancing things out. There’s surprisingly some boozy heat in the finish that hurts drinkability but this beer is still pretty refreshing.

2 oz sample from Teresa’s. Nice, bright, straw-like yellow. Nose is fresh grass and lemon accompanied by some floral notes. The hop profile on this pils is way beyond normal. Wet hops conquer the typical lager expectations with a grassy, spicy hop dominance. Nice, crisp mouthfeel with no traces of sulfuric lager yeastiness.

11/11/11. On tap. Clear golden pour with a nice fluffy off-white head that cuts but laces plenty. Grassy, hoppy aroma with a touch of cat pee, lemon peel, and a bit of grainy malts. Nice pilsner flavor as well with grainy pilsner malts, spicy, grassy hops, and undertones of citrus and green hoppy leafiness. Nice!

Tallahassee, Fl - on tap - Fermentation Lounge. Light gold pour, snow white head, decent lacing. Lemony, sour aroma, slightly odd. Flavor is very dry, grainy, with some slightly sour vinegary notes, hint of citrusy bitterness with some malty buttery notes to balance it out. Crisp,dry mouthfeel. Not what I expected.
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Clear golden with a white head. Aroma is full of hops. Citrus, light floral and fruit, some grass, and a touch of biscuit. Flavor has plenty of those fresh citrus hops, floral notes, too. Background biscuity malt lingers. Crisp lightly dry finish. Very nice hoppy pilsner.
