News from Downingtown


News from Downingtown

West beat East last night in Football but more importantly for Tenpints is the news out of Victory Brews...
YAKIMA TWILIGHT
ABOUT-The tenacious grip of big, juicy hop aroma and character slides smoothly into rich, dark malts. This heavyweight battle between fresh, Yakima Valley hops and dark, roasted malts is resolved harmoniously as the flavors merge to deliver complex satisfaction with a warming edge. Enjoy the ‘twilight’ for the bright and brassy hops!
COMPOSITION-Hops: Four whole flower Yakima Valley hops. Malts: imported, German malts....ABV: 8.7%
AVAILABILITY-Draft and bottles, November through January.
From the Victory news email I received: With the January 2009 move of our popular winter seasonal ale, Hop Wallop, to our full time portfolio of beers, there was a need for a new winter seasonal. Yakima Twilight fills that void left by Hop Wallop. You may recall that it was first offered on draft here at Victory in the autumn of 2008. From that experience, Yakima Twilight proved popular with Victory loyalists.
