4.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20 Indra (2323) - Overland Park, Kansas, USA - OCT 25, 2002
Citric, fruity, lightly grassy aromas, along with some faint yeast, how unusual is yeast aroma in a pils... Appealing dynamic golden yellow color, some fine haze. Carbonation and head are most impressive and the lacing is also very nice. Flavor is nicely balanced between the light but bodifying German pilsner malts and the fresh-tasting, spicy hops. Finish is on the dry side, and the malt plays its part well here, too, adding a little light, bready sweetness to the drying effect of the hops. Yeah, this is just about the best Pils I ever had. Lots going on here for that style of beer. They may be German ingredients, but they’re in American quantities!

Pour is light golden with a big head which settles into no head. Smells slightly of apple and flowers and slight corky flavor. Crisp feel with a bright bitterness which lingers. This is refreshing and big beer.

UPDATED: NOV 1, 2010 Poured from a 12 ounce bottle into a Collins glass. Enjoy by Jan 20, 2011 printed on label.
Appearance: Pours a clear light gold with a 1 finger foamy white head. Decent lacing.
Smell: Floral hops with a hint of spice and lemon zest.
Taste: Sweet florals up front then a subdued mix of bready malt and spices in the middle ending with bitter lemon rind at the finish. The hops really coat the mouth in a good way. Aftertaste is quite bitter.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied with a good amount of prickly carbonation.
Drinkability: High drinkability. Goes down very smooth so you could drink several of these without any trouble.
Overall: Very good beer overall. I would definitely recommend checking this one out.

light to medium color. Little head. Distinct hops armoa. The sharp hops flavor hits your palate right away, and leaves a distinctive bitterness. Definitely a favorite.

Draught. 1/6 barrel at home. Light and crisp this pils is a great beer to enjoy on a warm day. It is perfect in our SC summer nights. Victory produces many very good beers. The only negative is that some may be turned off by the natural unfiltered appearance. But, for a true beer lover it is a bonus.

Aroma is very bready with an underlying hoppiness while the appearance is gold-yellow. The flavor has a nice hoppy bite up front with a bready, malty backbone. Among the best pilseners out there.

Very good Pilsner. When you want a good Pilsner or Lager, it needs to be refreshing and taste great. Definitely an all day, every day, any season beer....a go to choice.
