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.

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!!

Nice pils. Pretty yellow color with a small head. Aroma of grassy hops and malt. Nice crisp mouth with good hop finish.

On Tap at the Father’s Office, Culver City. Aroma: fresh cut grass and fresh earthy hops. Pours clear golden with small white head, good head retention for a pils. Flavor: begins mellow and untraceable then becomes nicely spicy and hoppy. Finishes with a surprising roasted malt character in the throat. medium-light to light body. Very drinkable! I’ll admit it, I’m biased to Ales. But, this Pilsener is a revelation! A very enjoyable and hoppy Lager!! Nice for the warmer spring and summer months.

12 fl. oz. bottle from BOTW (Rochester), served at cellar temperature in a tulip glass. SE04/08.

App.: Golden, clear, decent white head. Aroma: Fruity, biscuits, bread crust, slightly soapy, some green and pepper hops, an odd aroma that I can’t describe and don’t like... Palate: Medium+ body, fairly soft carbonation, smooth. Flav.: Lightly fruity, much more hops – grassy, peppery, and still soapy, may be some light tropical fruit esters; dry with fair bitterness.

Nicht prima, aber gut.

Aroma - Pleasant aroma balanced hop & malt and something else... Appearance - Traditional golden fizzy Flavor - Complex and Yum strong spicy hop presence. Palate - the good stays with you all the way to the back of the tongue. OI - Great beer will definitely buy again. I am usually partial to ales but never scoff at a great beer no matter the style. This beer has a nice balance on noticeable hops that are missing in many pils

Cloudy golden pour with a nice head. Aroma is not your typical pils by any means. You can tell it has some pils qualities but the delicious hops in the nose set this one apart from most. Flavor is yeasty and hoppy...but not bitter or resiny. This is a good beer. I am very glad I finally got to try it.
