Wow. The good news just keeps coming in.
Philadelphia Magazine has just released its 2011 Best of Philly® awards, and we’re very happy to report that our own Victory Summer Love Ale was named Best Local Beer!
Definitely a very impressive achievement, especially when you consider how awesome so many of Philadelphia’s local beers and breweries are — we’re looking at you Yards, Sly Fox, Philadelphia Brewing Company, Troegs, Stoudts, Flying Fish, et al.
With peers like these, any type of recognition is amazing. And a Best of Philly® nod is just incredible.
But then again, and like we’ve said all along, Victory Summer Love Ale is great; it’s a deliciously crisp brew that makes for a perfectly satisfying sip in the summertime. Philadelphia Magazine calls the beer “extremely drinkable,” and says it satisfies “craft-brew newbies and serious hopheads alike.”
As a testament to its popularity, after first doubling, then tripling batches of the golden brew in 2010, Victory is now distributing the ale at bars, brewpubs, restaurants and grocery stores in 29 states nationwide.
Want to try some yourself? Check out our thorough guide to bars and restaurants where you can find the beer throughout Philadelphia. And be sure to consult Victory’s online beer finder for the most up to date locales.
Also keep in mind that this year, Summer Love Ale is available for purchase in bottles at beer distributors, so you can enjoy the beverage at home and at your next barbecue, tailgate, party, etc. And you’ll also be able to enjoy it when the With Love Beer Garden returns to the Four Seasons in August.
So a huge congratulations to Victory Brewing Company! We couldn’t be happier to be associated with such an awesome local beer and brewery. Huzzah!
Bonus: To celebrate their nod for Best of Philly burger, Pub & Kitchen is giving away a free Summer Love Ale to anyone who orders the Churchill burger this weekend.
