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.

From bottle : Pours a slightly hazy light yellow, with a very white foamy head, about 2 fingers tall, that sticks around for a few minutes. Nose of esters, and skunkyness, and some corn. Taste has a slight bit of fruit, but continues with the skunkyness from the nose, and the corn. Medium body, with a lively palate. Aftertaste is of corn again. I cant say that i care for this very much.

12 oz. Bottle. Classic golden yellow in color with a quickly dissipating white head. Nose is full of the Noble hop varieties with a bit of a spicy aroma. The flavor has a sharp bitterness and a bit of a grassy hop taste. The malt is present, but subtle with a mild sweetness that takes the edge off the hops. Body is about right for a pils, maybe a little thin behind all the hops. Finish is crisp with a lasting dry bite. Not my favorite style of beer, but it works great for Virginia during the muggy months of summer.

Well folks, I won’t call it heaps of hops but they are there. Bottle pours a nice yellow gold with asticky lacing and a quickly diminishing head. Body is malts covered by hops but not by much. Refreshing and hoppy. Easy drinking. A solid product from Victory.

hops. Some hops. Some more hops. I was impressed with the amount of flavor in this for a pils, but the rest I found lacking at the time. Early rating so will have to re-rate.

Bottle. I haven’t had too much experience with high quality lagers, but I’ve been looking for more pilsners to try. I really enjoy this pilsner. A nice, golden lager with a hoppy lagerish flavor and a crisp finish. A nice session beer that almost anyone can appreciate.

Bottle and I feel like I’m repeating myself but its once again impressive. Malt is balanced very well with hops on the nose. Very short sweetness followed by a long bitterness. Very smooth and drinkable. This brewery consistently rises on my list.
