Beer Tasting: Victory Storm King
Victory Storm King Imperial Stout is brewed by Victory Brewing in Downingtown PA.
Have you tasted this beer? Let us know what you think. As a suggestion, try to keep the review as brief as possible for each of the following: appearance; smell; taste; mouthfeel; and drinkability.
Appearance
Adam: brownish black with a tan head
Bryan: black as night with a thin-to-medium coffee (with cream) colored head
Smell
Adam: good dose of hops warning you of what's to come
Bryan: not a big and full but a nose pleasant enough to tease you
Taste
Adam: roasted, hoppy bitterness with a slight sweetness and some alcohol...I love it
Bryan: copy that Adam; the taste is the highlight of this beer...great roasted flavor, good dose of hops but not overpowering, tinge of alcohol in the finish
Mouthfeel
Adam: carbonated and substantial
Bryan: pleasing carbonation; body of the beer coats the mouth as it passes through
Drinkability
Adam: if you like imperial stouts then, "Yes". This is a great example of the style.
Bryan: Easy drinking, but careful, this is still a "big boy" drink ;-)
Seconds?
Adam: not if you are driving ;-)
Bryan: Yes, please, bring a few more
