On cask at Max's today. In my opinion, a beer like this really showcases the talent of the brewer at Victory.
The beer pours a golden amber color with good heard retention and lacing. This beer smells so good... I get warm bread, wheatberries, light apple cider vinegar and a touch of bitterness. The combination is very appealing. Flavors replicate the nose in this smooth, easy drinking, lovely bitter. Mouthfeel is light, soft, long, and so flavorful. Drinkability is just about perfect. It's nothing short of amazing that a 4% beer can have this amount of flavor.
It's easy (or at least easier) to make a great tasting beer with 10% or more alcohol.... but a beer with this much flavor and 4% alcohol is a rarity. Exceptional. Well done Victory....

Draft at brewery. Hazy orange amber with creamy head. Light aroma of sourdough bread. Taste adds some savory notes, still very light. Cask pour makes for some velvety textures.

Had this from cask at McGrath's in Harrisburg PA. Found this to be an excellent example of an english mild/bitter. Pours with little head , which quickly disappears ,and nice coppery/amber color. Tastes bready , malty, lightly toasted. Very nice slight bitter finish. Pleasant Malt aroma.
