Yakima Glory Ale

The Beer Stats:
  • Beer Name: Yakima Glory Ale
  • Brewery: Victory brewing (Pennsylvania)
  • Style: Dark IPA
  • ABV: 8.7%
  • IBU:?
  • Pour Color: Pours a very dark red.




      This one poured a dark colored red that let through little light. The head was big and fluffy but disappeared quickly. The scent of this one is earthy. You get a slightly fruity scent off it too. Those scents also have a slight sweet smell of malts to it. On taste you get hit with tons of flavors. Sweet roasted flavored malts are there in that dark color. The hops though are spicy and grassy. There's a flowery hint to this one too. Wow the range and flavor of this one is great and not scene often!
      Not quite as hoppy as a IPA usually is but nothing to complain about. This beer has a nice scent and a nice taste. The malts are strong as the hops and this leads to a nice balance. The crisp flavors are met by roasted dark malts and neither are left to go it alone. This one makes me glad the face is going to a victory take over in his home city!
