Jul 27, 2008 Bottle. Damn near impossible to open, I had to resort to a wine opener to get the cork out. Pours a hazy golden brown with a full white head that is very slow in dispersing. Excellent lacing left on the glass. The aroma is full of yeast, spices, malts, dark fruits. The flavor is excellent. Yeast, fruits, cloves, with a slight alcohol finish. Very well made beer.

Jul 21, 2008 sampled with the phoenix crew. pours a hazy dark amber with a small white head that fades to a ring and remains there. fruity aroma though i’m not sure which fruit it is... lots of floral warming yeast, brown sugar, spices and some alcohol burn. the flavor is a bit savory from the yeast... along with some grainy sweetness, bread, bananas?, pear flesh, grassy/hoppy, earth and a dry spice filled finish. alcohol vapors pour out of me as the bready yeasty goodness lingers in the aftertaste. medium to full bodied. the texture is thick and somewhat gritty with the yeast mixed in...

Jul 20, 2008 Pours a orange brown. Yeasty, buttery, fruity, and musty in the nose. Big time malts with a bit of heat. Butterscotch, spice and some esters. Real tasty.

Jul 19, 2008 Very good. Bottle from Gaslight in South Orange, NJ. V-12 says it all - 12%alc/vol. Smells just like grape juice. Palate last forever with flavor of alcohol and sweet juice.

Jul 14, 2008 Light fruity nose, with hints of sweetness. Pours a reddish-amber, with very visible carbonation, and a big fluffy slightly off-white head. Flavor is slightly sweet, with hints of yeast, but comes across hot. Some time letting this settle may help it out some.

Jul 13, 2008 Bottle thanks to 1 2many.
A surprisingly good Belgian style ale. Victory has impressed me once again and has produced a solid, authentic tasting Belgian ale that has great balance, sweet malt, and a nice yeast flavor. I enjoy the carbonation and the finish. Oh yeah, and the ABV is well hidden. I wouldn’t have guessed it was 12%.

Jul 12, 2008 this beer is big, at %12 ballance is hard to master. They did not quite pull it off. Beyond that its nice, pours light peach with a small head. Aroma is spice and malt. A touch sweet and thick. A bit medicinal and ping at the finish. It improves as I drunkin.
