doubleo (1096), San Diego, California, USA Oct 18, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours slightly hazy, light yellow with a thin, crisp white head. Smells cereal malty and light, green hoppy. Tastes light and crisp, sweet malty with some light, green hops. Thin body, good carbonation. Theis (3617), Denmark Oct 18, 2008 Bottle at home - shared with Mette. Clear yellow - white head. Clean pilsner malty, white head, hay, light wet hay, nice hoppy, but not that fresh, bitterness, high bitterness, light grass, light cardboard, citruc, light crispyness. OK. caesar (3020), Bunnik/Utrecht, Netherlands Oct 17, 2008 Bottled. Clear yellow color, medium white head. Nice hoppy aroma, bit flowery, slight grassy. Good bitter pils taste, slight grassy, smooth. Great palate. Very good pilsener style (which is supposed to be and in this case truly is obvious different from the typical american pale like ales). elihapa (1033), Honolulu, California, USA Oct 16, 2008 Updated: May 2, 2009Bottle. Aroma is grassy, with light citrus. Palate is crisp, slightly dry, a touch thin. Flavor full of grass, with some malt and hops. I’m not all that impressed, to be honest, but in honor of Victory’s faithful recreation of the Pilsner style, I’ll settle for judging this beer as “decent”.
retried 5/2/09: OK, OK, I wasn’t fair to this beer the first time. Grassy, herbal aroma in the nose. Flavor has definite breadiness, grass, light lemon and herbs. Finish is crisp and dry. To be drank on a warm day, not sipped from a snifter. awiseman01 (318), Indianapolis, Indiana, USA Oct 15, 2008 Updated: May 1, 2009Sample, on tap at FFF Brewpub. Pours very light yellow. Light and smooth easy drinker. Lightly hopped, undertones of citrus. Lacking very much depth, but overall refreshing. doubelknv3 (559), Illinois, USA Oct 15, 2008 Clear, yellow / straw color with white frothy head...carbonated. Floral, grain / straw, and mild citrus notes. Floral, citrus, and grain flavours. Full bodied with medium bitter finish. KnutAlbert (3101), Oslo, Norway Oct 13, 2008 Draft at Gordon Ramsay’s at the London, New York.
Great that even two star restaurants have craft beers nowadays.
Full malty flavour, hoppy aroma, dry crisp finish. An ideal food companion. Acknud (770), Morganfield, Kentucky, USA Oct 11, 2008 Nice pils. Pretty yellow color with a small head. Aroma of grassy hops and malt. Nice crisp mouth with good hop finish.
