May 28, 2009 Tap at Barcade. Clear amber beer. Aroma is lovely. Lots of fresh earthy hops. Crisp crackery malts. There is a touch of biscuity/caramel malt sweetness and a bright lingering hoppiness. A little bit spicy with almost a noble floral character to the nose. The yeast and malts are quite clean and the beer itself is fantastically refreshing. A lingering spiciness on the back. A pretty nice pint really. It even gets a little bit citrusy as it warms up.

Jan 19, 2009 Golden amber with a rich aroma of caramel and bread with citrus and earthy hops. Flavor has English and American hops throughout with a satisfying finish. One of the best American ESBs hands down.

Jan 6, 2009 Draft Pours a good amber with a small white head. Very carbonated. Has good aroma of toffee and malts with hints of citrus hops. Has a good strong hoppiness. A very smooth drinking beer. Good aftertaste and another great beer from Victory. A couple more quality products and they may become my favorite local.

Nov 27, 2008 Sampled at the brewpub. Golden pour and a caramel malt nose. Surprisingly high level of bitterness in this one. Lots of toasted, bready malts. A lingering bitterness sticks on the tongue. Just eh.

Nov 26, 2008 tap from the Downingtown pub. Very much like the Uncle Teddys but for some reason much colder and not as much of a creamy head. Very good Bitter! Very good session beer indeed. This may be the best "American" Bitter I have had yet. I’m very partail to the English bitters and this is very close and very good in it’s own way. A bit of fruit and hops comes through in a subtle way. Looks great and goes down great!
