Victory, Golden Monkey


Look: Orange cloudy body with floating sediment. White, silky head reminiscent of lemon meringue topping

Taste: Smells of vinegar and spices. Fruits and spices

Conclusion: This fine brew was recommended by someone on this site. I'd been looking for it in an individual bottles and didn't want to pony up the cash for a whole sixer.

This was actually the best Belgian I've ever had. It still had the strong vinegar smell and finish but was lightly equipped with tasty fruits and spices. Definitely not as brash and sickly sweet as other Belgians. A welcome respite from my arch nemesis'(Belgians) sickening attacks. Thanks Victory!

P.S. Big ups to "Jeremy" from the East Coast for recommending this to me. It took me a year to find, Jeremy, but I did it! My excuse is I could only find this in a 6 pack and I have personal rules against buying 6 packs of Belgians(no offense Mr. Golden M0nkey).

7 Brews! (That's like a 9 for a Belgian in my book)
