Brewery: Victory Brewing Co.
Type: Farmhouse Ale
ABV: 6.8%
Sight: Slightly foggy golden-yellow throughout with a pure white thin head that pours quickly out of the bottle. There is some mild carbination rising from the bottom to the minimal film on the surface.
Aroma: Sweetness of grapefruit lead things off with an orange zest popping off of a a light malt base.
Taste: Citrusy with a bit of a yeasty undertone. Grapefruit, lemon, orange, with a hint of clove possibly thrown in. A very light malt backbone holds things together well and supports the unique seasonings that are inter-mingled within. Supposed to get sage and rosemary, but i am not able to seperate them completely from each other. There is a little dryness at the end that i love.
Overall: Superbly done. I enjoyed this one from Victory a little better than the Stone version, which i gave a 9.1/10. The flavors are a little more balanced in this version, with nothing overpowering the others. The mouthfeel is light and a slightly sour/sweet aftertaste holds the corners of the tongue pleasantly.
Score: 9.2/10
