Samuel Adams LongShot Grape Pale Ale

bottle . . pours amber with a light grape color . . aroma is subtle hops, malty and fruit . . taste is subtle fruit, hops . . not sure how i feel about this one

Hmmm... of the hundreds of submitted beers, this was the winner? It’s okay, but definitely nothing special... not by a... longshot! haha!

The pour is orange-ish pink-ish hued. The head is white and sudsy. The aroma is slight hoppy with sweet characteristics... The only reason you think there may be a grape aroma is due to the name. The beer is pretty high in carbonation, light. the grape flavor is dry and crisp. The finish is not as sharp as I would like, and there is a touch of lingering aftertaste. I’m not a fruit beer guy....

Bottle. An amber body with an off white head. Thin with a fruity grape start with some subtle woodiness and caramel malt. Mmm SA never makes great fruit beers, im sure this was much better small batch.

Strange and exactly what it says. Grape juice flavored beer. A bit sweet and odd tasting. Not much balance just sweet grape and fruit sugars.

the body is is and amber color with a very large head, and lots of co2 bubbles. the aroma is malty, and fruits. the over all taste is is weird, it is sweet and caramel with a grape finish. overall this is one of hte better longshots that i have had..

murky brown body with a thick long lasting cream colored head. nose is malt, like sticking my nose in a mash tun. very sweet flavor that i enjoy. caramel flavor dominates in a good way. a bit of green grape is there in the finish. love the sweetness. 5 5 7 3 13

Longshot series is a great idea, not much fruit flavor let me down.. but a must try i guess
