1827 Victoria Mexico Dunkel / Dark Lager 2.9

Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

Pours a clear dark orange with a foamy khaki head that settles to wisps of film on top of the beer. Small streaks of lace form around the glass on the drink down. The aroma is of malt, caramel, and fruit aromas. The taste is much the same with toast, caramel, and fruit flavors on the finish. There is a very mild amount of earth bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a lower level of carbonation with a slightly crisp mouthfeel.

1828 Victory Festbier United States Marzen / Oktoberfest 3.5

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

pours a copper colored and clear, effervescent carbonation like a soda, with minimal head which quickly disappeared, with no lacing. The aroma was of strong grain smells, cereal, porridge, crackers with some caramel notes and just a bit of smoke. Slight yeast and alcohol aromas as well. The taste was of moderate malt and caramel taste, some hop flavor just enough to keep the sweetness in check, with a clean, bitter backbone. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied and creamy.

1831 Victory HopDevil United States IPA 3.5

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

Pours a real clear copper/amber with a small puffy white head. No real visible carbonation. Spotting of lacing. The aroma is citrusy grapefruit hops up front with some mild malt in the background. The taste is not as overly hoppy as the aroma would lead you to believe. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. With all the hops it isn't overly sticky on the palate.

1832 Victory Prima Pils United States Bohemian / Czech Pilsener 3.5

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

Pours a golden straw color with a large white head with average retention. Eventually, the head settles to nice patches of lacing left on the glass. The aroma is very zesty and grassy from the hops, with just a touch of citrus and earth. The hops take center stage over the pils malt backbone. The taste has lots of hop flavor and bitterness abound. Grass and earth are the initial flavors, before giving way to black pepper, grapefruit rind, lemon zest, and pine notes on the finish and aftertaste. The mouthfeel is light and spritzy with healthy carbonation and big dryness, but it's incredibly refreshing on a hot day

1833 Victory Storm King Imperial Stout United States Imperial Stout 3.2

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 5 | Overall: 6

pours a very black with a tan finger of foam that hangs around for a while with ok lacing. The aroma is floral, definite hop with some typical chocolate and coffee after tasting and not toasty or roasted like some stouts. The taste has some roasted flavor, but not overpowering. A hop kick up front that quickly dissolves into a much more sweet taste. Good. The mouthfeel is fairly smooth with a little carbonation does not disturb the sweet flavor and full bodied. Note do not like coffee so not a big fan of Stout beers with coffee flavoring.

1836 Virgin Islands Blackbeard Ale Virgin Islands, U.S. Amber Ale 3.5

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

pours a nice dark amber (unusual for Caribbean) with nice off white head. A nice aroma of bread and caramel arose from the glass. The flavor was malty, sweet, caramel, and is bready with an aftertaste that is malty with a finish that is refreshing and fairly smooth. If i could have only 1 beach beer this would be it.

Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

Wasn't as good as blackbeards Ale. Pours a light yellow with a small head. The beer is week and watery tasting for a lager. Aroma isn't much to speak of either. Not sure how this is brewed by the same people how make Blackbeard's ale.

1838 Wachusett Blueberry Ale United States Fruit Beer 3.4

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 7

Pours a very pale orange with a bit of haze and a small spritzy white head becomes a ring quite quickly eventually dissipating to just about nothing. The aroma has a decent, authentic blueberry scent - not particularly strong or complex but pleasant enough. The taste is similar, it's all about the blueberries but it's not overly sweet, decent flavor and doesn't come off as artificial. Not much else to it other than some bready malts, graininess, maybe a touch of sweeter caramel malts. Not bad, but would have liked a little more blueberry in the taste. The mouthfeel was decent, but a bit thin with some spritzy carbonation.

1839 Warped Wing Barn Gang United States Saison 3.5

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

pours a translucent honey gold that glows when the light hits it. Barest thin white foam across the top. Some small fine strands and islands of persistent foam noted. The aroma has some white grape and citrus/tropical fruit. Aroma was not strong. Taste: Lots of interesting flavors: lemon, grape, herbal, and lingering herbal/floral bitterness. Malt underneath is hard to pick out - the grape/fruit flavors mask it a bit so that the malt sweetness comes out differently than expected. This is a very tasty and interesting beer. Mouthfeel: Good carbonation, nice thickness

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

Pours a copper red, small tan tinged head, not a ton of lacing, but then again, most of his beers are a little lacking in retention. The aroma is earthy English hop, toast, caramel, and a light breadiness. A slight whiff of butterscotch. The taste follows the aroma, minus the butterscotch. Very nice earthy hop presence. The mouthfeel is creamy, medium body, finishes clean.
