WILK Friday BeerBuzz–3 June 2011 (Victory Brewing Summer Love)

WILKFridayBerbuzz15Back in March we teamed up with Brian Whetstone from Victory Brewing to bring you the NEPA premier of Victory Headwaters Pale Ale…and we even invited you all to come out to Krugel’s Georgetown Deli & Beer to sample it with us.  Later that night we worked with Brian to schedule another great event to premier another great Victory Brewing beer AND let you come out tonight and sample it again….and TODAY is the DAY!

imageToday Brian Whetstone was nice enough to join us in the studio to to launch the new Victory Summer Love golden Ale.  I wrote abut this beer back in April when the label was released and I’ve been excited to try it ever since.

Summer Love is not only a great 5.2% ABV golden ale, but also part of a joint venture between the Philly Tourism bureau and Victory Brewing to promote the “With Love Philadelphia XOXO” campaign.  Summer Love is also a feature beer for this week’s Philly Beer Week.

Summer Love is a lighter easy drinking summer beer with a great hop note up front, and just enough body to make it drinkable and satisfying….and speaking of drinkable….Come on out tonight (June 3rd from 5-7PM) to Krugel’s Georgetown Deli & Beer to sample Victory Summer Love yourself.  I’ll be on hand with Brian Whetstone to hand out samples and talk beer so mark your calendars and come on out!

Thanks

to  Brian (and everyone @ Victory Brewing), John, Nancy, Joe & Bosco for yet another fun Friday. 

The Friday BeerBuzz…bringing good beers and good people together.

    Guys

    Am I correct that Summer Love isn't a light beer?

    Correct Marty. Summer Love may be light in color but it has very drinkable body and 5.2% ABV...it starts out nicely with some Simcoe hops up front and finishes with tetnang hop for s clean dry easy drinking finish. It's lighter than a Pale Ale or IPA but far from Lite!

    I really love Victory beers. Thanks to Brian for helping to promote them in our area. I wasn;t even aware of Headwaters Ale until I saw it on your show. We came out back in Feb to try it and now we buy it all the time. I guess this means I should come out tonight and try Summer Love?

    I've been planning Philly Beer week now for several months and looking forward to trying Summer Love. I'm really excite dthat I can come out to Krugels tonight and try it early. This is a great thing Victory is doing in NEPA. All too often we're the 3rd class citizens behind Allentown, but I think not only has WILK brought us more exposure to craft beer, but they've created a great forum for breweries like Victory to participate in.

    Thank you WILK & Brian

    Thanks AJ. I'll do anything I can to promote craft beer in NEPA and I really like to see that Brian Whetstone and Victory Brewing are committed to helping me make that happen. We'll have to buy Brian a beer tonight.

    I agree with what Rodger says....LOTS of great beers to choose from, a free sampling of Victory Summer Love to anyone over 21, fantastic food and great beers on tap to drink to take out in growlers....and Yes John & I will be there to "help" Brian hand out samples.

    Thanks Cait...I have to credit Brian for the musical choice today. The Magical Mystery Tour is perfect for Philly Beer Week and All you Need is Love is perfect for Summer Love Ale.

    Thanks everyone. Beer is and should always be fun...so be sure to join us for some "fun" tonight at Krugel's Georgetown Deli & Beer to sample Victory Summer Love. This is not only a great beer, but I'll predict that you'll want to take some home too.
