Victory's web site says they are doing a release in June that is a
new style for them. Any guesses as to what it may be?

But seriously, maybe Schwarzbier? Have they ever done a
straight-up Brit/Scot/Irish style, like a bitter, porter, or
(non-Imperial) stout?
Steve again -
Yes they have a great bitter on tap - Uncle Teddy's Bitter -
awesome
session stuff, and Workhorse Porter, also very quaffable.
ISTR they also had good mention for a Mild?
A beer that even many UK breweries don't bother with; as it's seen as
an old man's drink (& also previously had something of a bad
reputation, as the cask that all the 'slops'(*) were dumped into!)
When well-kept & well-brewed, however, the experience of a session on
good cask mild is sublime. My favourites are the darker, roastier &
chocolatey examples from the midlands (e.g. Holden's, Batham's,
Enville, Sarah Hughes (6%abv!), plus the excellent Cain's Mild, from
Liverpool).
cheers,
MikeMcG.
