16 ounce can. Rating number 7007 (another palindrome). Hazy medium gold pour. Large frothy white head. Spotty lacing. Perfumy hop aroma hints at peach, melon and apricot. Flavor has hints of tangy malt, citrus, passion fruit and guava. Soft, pliable mouthfeel. Easy drinking for a IIPA. Mild peppery finish. Decent.

Pours hazy gold into a tulip. Bright white soapy head with little retention recedes to bubble surface. Dark sour pit fruit and caramel aromas. Crisp with earthy sourdough, overripe tropical fruit skin and hot caramel front to back. Dry sour pith finish.

Can at Ardmore Rock N Ride: pours orangish with white head. Aroma is loads of but not excessive grapefruit. Taste fruity and tangy. Not bad.

At Rock N Ride: pours slightly hazy. Perfumey orange aroma. Low bitterness. Sort of sweet. Fine.

Look, I support victory for its efforts especially since anchor called it quits. Victory, I think , has been around quite a long time too. So, this is to be another monkey? You know, take a fairly popular name and make cloned variations, for profit? None the less? How does a brewer survive the long shot?? First pop from this can, no hint from the nose that it is what it is supposed to be, somewhat fresh but except that, it’s not an offense and a turn off. Pour and what is in the eye? A clear slightly darker than pale orange colored with a medium foamy white bubbly head. After the small pour, I drink it right from the can; it’s not offensive and it does have a slight hint of berry flavor, and yes its somewhat tart. A careful introspection yields a little bit of that processed feel in there lurking around. Finally I look at the label and it says nothing about the ABV but here @ RB, it says its almost a 10 percenter? NO WAY! Oh my, hiding its alky content as well. Oh yea, oops, how stupid of me, I was looking at the small print before even looking at the ABV Righton the front of the can in BIG STRAIGHT UP FONT….. Yet hypnotizing baby blue sea-green, I may add. Overall, I finished the can without any complaints and it’s a pretty good median between a full out tart brew and a lager. It went down easy and does no harm to the sour monkey moniker. Good job V, there are no ill ale or lager affects in this one! And as a bonus, caught a little buzz as well! Its a misnomer that tart beers are low alky, hehhh.

Can from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours clear gold with a creamy white head. Aroma is mixed citrus dominated by lime. Med body. Lots of grapefruit, even zest, but the lime tops it. Dry and citrus peel bitter. Very nice change of pace.
