COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Pure pils pleasure with a juicy jolt... Our latest single hop varietal pils features a fresh twist. A very fresh twist as whole flower hops went from the vine to the kettle in a mere 10 hrs. giving the beer a snap of freshness that has to be tasted to be believed. In ’wet hopped’ beers such as this, the hops are full of fresh oils that dissipate when the hops normally dried. These essential oils give Braumeister Harvest Pils the clean, spicy hop aromas you’d expect from a pristine pilsner, followed by the long, satisfying mouthfeel full of flavorful hop depth and substance. All this flavor yields to clean malt and a crisp finish.

i don’t think any American brewery makes better Pilsener than Victory does. This is above and beyond due to the extraordinary use of fresh hops stuff. does good things to good German beers.

Growler shared by drabmuh. Thanks Matt! The beer is crystal clear and light yellow hued, leaving ample lacing on the pint glass. The aroma is floral, herbal, grassy. Nice flavor, with a strong hop presence. Very fresh. Lasting pleasant hop bitterness in the finish. Light in body, refreshing, and easy to drink. Complex and well balanced. A tasty brew. I would certainly have this again. Serving type: growler Reviewed on: 10-29-2011

Draft at the brew pub. Pours clear orange with a medium sized white head. The aroma has some yeasty notes with a bit of bread and hoppy nose. The taste is medium bitter with a slightly sweet finish.

JAXSON (480) - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA - OCT 26, 2012
Also known as "Braumeister Harvest Pils", this is a mid-fall seasonal. Gold pour, great expression of bright hops, fresh grains. Pretty tight and snappy, but a touch more German than Czech so there is some lingering hop bitterness. Really bright and dry, lots of twinling German hops on the finish. Loved this in a pint then tried it blind next to Prima and Braumeister and surprisingly liked Prima the most, then this, then Brau. It’s a wild life!

Golden pour w/ thin white head. Hop aroma. Taste is clean & hoppy but the wet hops make this very drinkable. Quite pleasant!

Pours clear gold with a medium white head...lively...great lacing and retention. Aroma has nice flowery notes of grass and light citrus with some straw. Flavor is grassy/spicy with good bitterness...light herbal/medicinal note. Mouthfeel is light and lively with a dry bitter/herbal finish.

Chipalsa (1090) - Florida, USA - JUN 8, 2012
Had a sample of this a while ago at Oblivion Taproom. The nose was grassy and had some stale hops, overall lots of straw in the aroma. The taste was crisp and tart, with light notes of grapefruit and wheat. I mainly appreciated how exclusive this beer is, and the American approach to this style was well-implemented.

Poured a clear yellow color aroma of grassy hops, citrus and a smidge of cereal. Flavor is the same, hops not overpowering, nice balanced sweetness with bitterness.

Tap at Oblivion Taproom. Nose is grass and light citrus. Lots of hops and some pale malts. Pour was clear yellow with a huge, dense, white head. Taste was hop dominated, with some light citrus and fruit. Quite grassy. Very bitter on the finish.
