Day 191: Victory Prima Pils


Name: Prima Pils
Brewer: Victory Brewing Co. (Downington, PA)
Classification: German Pilsner
Alcohol: 5.3%

Thoughts: I was able to go grab a beer with a friend that I hadn't hung out with in a while this afternoon. The beer I was able to grab was a Victory Prima Pils. This beer pours a yellowish straw-gold with a wispy white head that flowed over the side of the glass. The smell has a very traditional biscuit and grain malt smell with a pinch of lemon and spice to give it something extra. The taste is bright and crisp with plenty of floral hops up front. Notes of tart citrus and sweet malts come up after the hops subside. The character of this beer is light and fresh and all types of good. I really enjoyed how clean this beer is and how the flavors distinguish themselves from each other. This is more of a summer beer, but on a day in the middle of January that is in the mid 60s it's still pretty damn good.

Rating: 87/100
