Commercial Description:
Heaps o' hops are hiding under the full, frothy head of this elegant Pils. All German malt subtleties linger beneath a long dry finish of this classy quencher.

Bottle. Pours a clear light yellow color with a huge white head. Aroma of malts, hops and citrus. Has light skunky smell. Taste of malt, dry hops and citrus. Has a dry light bitter dusty finish.

The body is lightly hazy and yellowish-gold in color. A small, foamy, eggshell colored head leaves soapy flares of lacing on the glass. Aromas include a delicate and clean malt base of lightly toasted bread, doughy yeast, and hints of cream. A fresh, grassy hop billing is substantial for the style, and hints of lemon rind lend a bright citrus spark. Flavors are equally impressive. The soft, toasty malts are balanced perfectly by the fresh, sharp grassy notes. Medium bodied and perfectly carbonated, the mouthfeel is smooth, finishing on the dry side. This is a damn fine, thirst quenching pils. Simple and sophisticated.

Pours golden with a quick fading white head. A much more full pilsner. Slow drinking, but very nice.

Golden color with white head. Crisp Floral Hops aroma. Pine hops taste. Not the best product from Victory.

Pretty strong crisp, floral notes in this pils. A bit fuller than I prefer in this style which makes it a bit tougher to drink, but the hops and malts all come together very well. I wouldn’t reach for this if I wanted a pilsener, but I’d still pick it up again.

12 oz bottle from premier gourmet. pours hazy golden with a nice white head. aromas are grainy malts and faded hops. the flavours are similar but the hops come through near the end. very nice pils but i think mine was a little past its prime. id love to try a fresh tap sample. id buy this if local.
