Commercial Description:
Bottle: Filtered.
Ingredients: 2 row German pale malt; Czech Saaz, German Northern Brewer hops.
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.

golden yellow, lots of tiny bubbles, frothy white head, fresh hop aroma with a touch of malt sweetness, light malt flavor followed by big hop burst and lots of bitterness, sample was a little old and cardboardy, otherwise rating could have been higher

Fantastic pilsner. Hop-heavy with good malt background and a lot of style.

It pours a hazy blond color; the head disappears but it leaves some lace. At first it has some Saaz aroma, but later it mutates more into a common beer. Not much malt flavor, but at least a strong hopping, with a lot of Hallertau and some Saaz. I waited long to re-try this; it’s not bad, but when I see people naming it as top Pils, I can’t help thinking about a Tipopils tasted fresh at the brewpub.

Hazy blond color. Light aroma. Very good taste, with some malt crispness, smooth, and an excellent European hopping, leading to a strong long and aromatic final. Excellent amongst bottled Pils.

Clear golden with medium white head. Hoppy aroma with notes of flowers and rubber. Sweet and hoppy flavor with floral, caramel and fruity notes. Ends bitter.

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!!

Bottle from Utobeer. Clear paleish gold, thick rocky white head. Very grassy pils. Creamy pils aroma. Quite nettley on the finish. Maybe just lacks a bit of balance, maybe just a bit too hoppy on the finish, to be a truly refreshing balanced pils. Herby nettley hops. Rest of beer is good, attractive lightish malts. But maybe just a bit too nettley.

Very pale yellow, not much head. Rubbery, grassy hoppy nose. Harsh, malty flavor. Some late hoppyness and a bit of sugar. Suprise to have such a bulk from craft brewery.

Botella. Golden colour. Sweet hoppy flowery aroma. Good mouthfeel. The flavour has a pleasant bitterness with pine, fruits, good maltiness, caramel and a dry bitter finish. Refreshing pils.
