victory prima pilsner

bernerbrau · 07-02-2009, 11:24 PM

Just picked up a 22ozer and had this. Freaking amazing. Hoppy and malty yet not overwhelming in either. Now typing this review on my phone from the bar.

This is one fizzy yellow piss beer that does not disappoint. Actual review to follow when I'm not druck.

Prolly the best domestic German style pilsner I have ever tasted.

Love the brew...and there is a clone of the brew in this issue of Zymurgy (July/August) to boot!!!

Quite tasty...we've got plenty of great pilsners in PA to accompany Prima (which I do enjoy too):
Troegs Sunshine Pils
Stoudts Pils
Sly Fox Pikeland Pils
Penn Kaiser

all quite tasty

A thoroughly enjoyable quaffer, for sure!

Here's a start: Victory Brewing Co. :: Taste Victory

100% Pils malt, probably Hallertau and Saaz.

Clone recipe from Zymurgy, author Amahl Turczyn Scheppach:

1.053, 51 IBU (all whole hops), 3 SRM, 75% eff., 90min boil
9.25lb German Pils
Double decoction w/mashout (20@122, 40@145, 20@155, 10@165F)
1oz Tradition 6% @60
1oz Tett 4.5% @30
1oz Mittelfrüh 4.5% @20
2oz Saaz 4.3% @10
German lager @50F, lager 10-13wks @35F

I'd have to use about 10lb to get 1.053 on my system....
