Tap to rate

Victoria is a Vienna-style lager in the tradition of the old Toluca brewery, brewed from water, barley malt, non-malted cereals and hops. It pours a clear light amber with a steady, tan-tinged head. The nose shows orange-blossom honey on toast, soft caramel and a little grain. The body is light to medium, with toasted malt, a tangy note of apple butter and a hint of star fruit over gentle malt sweetness; the bitterness stays low, and the finish is crisp and clean.
