Review – Victory Prima Pils
From Victory Brewing Co. – Heaps of hops give this pale lager a bracing, herbal bite over layers of soft and smooth malt flavor. This refreshing combination of tastes makes Prima a classy quencher in the tradition of the great pilsners of Europe. Dry and delightful, this is an elegant beer.
Victory Brewing Co. – Prima Pils – 12 oz. bottle poured into a pint glass. 5.3% abv. Purchased at Whole Foods Market, Arroyo Pasadena, CA.
Appearance: Pours a clear yellow gold with a tight knit 1/4 inch head.
Brewing something people should know about?
Since 2007, The Full Pint has been where craft beer fans get their news. Breweries and beer brands can reach them too.
Aroma: Bready biscuity malt and modest bitter hopping.
Taste: A mouthful of bitter hops, dry light malt followed by more bitterness and spicy hops.
Mouthfeel: Thin and refreshing.
Overall: A nice , well made beer. I would add this to my session rotation if it wasn’t $10.00 a six pack.

$10 a six pack is the norm for just about any IPA out here. Therefore, sessions really don’t exist for me.

Thanks. We are proud of this one. 5 Pennsylvania pilsners were in the NY Times top 18 selections (April 29), Prima being their top choice.
