Victory Headwaters Pale Ale (5.1) ABV

Reflecting over the years as we approach our 15th anniversary here at Victory, we can’t help but be struck by the realization that Downingtown has made a great home for Victory. From the enthusiastic throngs that crowd our brewpub to enjoy our creative, flavorful beers and cuisine to the natural charms of the area, we are blessed with good fortune. As the active community contributor we’ve been over those years, we recognize our opportunity to both utilize and protect these assets. Chief among those assets is the pure water we receive from the East Branch of the Brandywine Creek that begins its journey to us just under 14 miles from where we brew with it. We’ll be celebrating this water (insert your lite beer joke here) with our anniversary beer, Headwaters Pale Ale, due to be released February 15, 2011. Now, considering that beer is the product of four simple ingredients and the three other than water rely on water for their existence, we’ve had a fair amount of latitude in paying homage to water in our beer. So, we’ve played all of our cards deftly, bringing the hops, malt and yeast in harmony, with our great local water as the conductor in Headwaters Pale Ale.

A perfect American-style pale ale. Not overwhelmingly hoppy, but still a satisfying flavor! Great in the springtime.

Lunch Session and Dinner Session - 15th Anniversary. Fifteen years of drinking Victory, Prost! Were you there? I like the fact that Ron & Bill chose to keep it simple and create and everyman's style beer instead of the usual over-the-top Anniversary offering. Headwaters is one I'll always come back to.
