Victory Agave IPA - Blackboard Series #1 IPA - 7% ABV Pete This is OK but certainly not great. It has a bit of an odd sweetness that doesn't really work (I'm sure that's the agave). I don't really want ingredients in my beer that go in margaritas, with the notable exception of lime in a Corona.
Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's
Victory Brotherly Love New England IPA - 6% ABV Pete Basically a "light" version of the NEIPA style. Solid.
Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's
Victory DirtWolf Imperial IPA - 8.7% ABV Pete This isn't nearly as bitter as you'd expect from a "double IPA". It has some citrus flavor, but really just doesn't have enough flavor. Somehow, it doesn't taste boozy.
Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's
Victory Festbier Oktoberfest - 5.6% ABV Pete This is a great one from Victory. It is pretty sweet, but a subtle spiciness balances it very well.
Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's
Victory Golden Monkey Tripel Ale - 9.5% ABV
Josh Nothing to write home about, but it'll get you where you want to go...quickly.
Pete Only buy this if you're trying to get drunk very fast. It isn't that good. Still, it's relatively cheap for how strong it is.

Victory Headwaters Pale Ale Pale Ale - 5.2% ABV Josh Smooth, crisp, delicious.
Rating: Josh- 6 Shyoh’s
Victory Home Grown Lager - 4.8% ABV Pete Very pale beer with a little bit of hoppy flavor. It smells quite a bit dank, and you get a little of that in the flavor too.

Victory Hop Devil IPA - 6.7% ABV Pete This beer isn't quite as bitter as I was expecting, but that is not necessarily a bad thing. This one is very good.
Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's
Victory Hop Ticket Session IPA IPA - 4.5% ABV Pete This is a somewhat generic IPA, but it is above average. Definitely worth having a 6 pack in the middle of the day.
Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's
Victory Hop Wallop Imperial IPA - 8.5% ABV Pete Very good beer here. It has the nice smooth, bitter feel of an IPA, and it is even stronger than most IPA's.
Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's
Victory Kirsch Gose Gose - 4.7% ABV Pete Very tasty. Nice blend of sour, cherry, and salty. Pretty chuggable if you so desire.
Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's
Victory Mighty Things Imperial IPA - 8.3% ABV Pete Earthy and fairly bitter. I had this with French Onion soup, and man was it an amazing combo. Definitely stands up to hearty flavors quite well.
