1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Bottled
Very pale yellow, not much head. Rubbery, grassy hoppy nose. Harsh, malty flavor. Some late hoppyness and a bit of sugar. Suprise to have such a bulk from craft brewery.
4.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
The hop on the label says it all -- prepare to be bombarded by the aroma and flavor of that yummy ingredient. Victory can call it a pils if it wants (and based on how it made the beer, it probably should), but the hoppiness is APA all the way. Good stuff!!
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle, 12oz, at Copenhagen Beer Festival. A clear, almost golden beer with a decent white head. Lovely nose with citrusy hops doing most of the job, but supported by pale malts. Fine flavor of citrusy, piney hops blending with the pale malts that add some sweetness. Fine bitterness too, with a lasting finish. Nicely carbonated, medium body and rather dry. A lovely pils, giving the finger to Scandinavian pilsners. (Or "pilsners"). (090516)
