Victory Release Calendar 2014

I would highly doubt it, I bet someone screwed up and forgot to put it on the list.

 

Im excited about Moving Parts and happy to see Mad Kings finally get a shot in the bottle. Mad Kings Weisse always reminds me more of a Belgian Blonde ale. Moving parts will help to keep interest up as one element of the brew is tweaked each time its released.

 

I sure hope so..(was about to make a mad dash to the store to snag the last case of lager)

 

Their lager has been absolutely incredible lately. I had keg for the holidays and everyone loved it.

 

The "Alley Brewing Co." beer at Citzen's Bank Park is Victory Lager with a different label, and I would like to continue enjoying that (and Summer Love, my other favorite Phillies game beer) this summer. Don't make it go away!

 

Keith, I understand it will continue to be brewed at the Downingtown brewery, but only be available to draft accounts. Not surprisingly, it is the best selling draft beer at Victory Hall at the Infinity Live entertainment center in the South Philly sports complex.

 

Noo! This is why we can't have nice things. *going to snag case or two today*

 

The website has not been updated for the beers that have knowingly been retired, so unfortunately it doesn't give an accurate indication of Lager's status. They still list Hop Wallop as "Year-round on draft, in 12 oz. bottles and 22 oz. bottles", Yakima Glory as "Late Fall seasonal in 12 oz. bottles and on draft" and the Saints as winter/spring seasonals in 12oz bottles, yet we all know that they are brewery-only now if not completely retired.

 

No Yakima Glory? booooooo

 

Talk about a beer that went downhill in popularity fast. Back when it was first released as Yakima Twilight the recipe was near-perfect, then it was re-branded they meddled with the recipe (Victory also did this with the tap-only Victory Village, completely watering it down and using less coffee), and it would sit around on shelves for months without selling. No wonder they retired it.

 

I didn't realize they changed the recipe but I guess that makes sense. When I had a couple pints of it last year (Fall 2012), it didn't seem as tasty as when I wrote my first review of the beer from the Fall 2010 bottling.

I still thought it was a good beer last year though. I like my hoppy beers to have some malt body to them.

 

Can anyone tell me what Moving Parts is? I've never heard of it.

 

Old Horizontal was released back in November of this year too? Man, I haven't seen it anywhere near me yet (central PA at the moment). Did it get full distribution this year?

 

I believe it will be an IPA style beer. Each release of the beer, some of the ingredients will be "tweaked" or changed to give a different appearance, and/or aroma and/or flavor profile.

 

Was this published by Victory? I couldn't locate it on their website.

 

Well, in case you guys needed even MORE Victory beer announcements, here's one that I just came across that's not even ON that list:

I concur. Red Thunder is excellent and not bad around $8 to 9

 

Just tried Hop Wallop and thought it was fantastic... Sad to not see it on the list here.
