| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 27, 2007 This is the lowest rated of the three longshots this year, but it’s the best of the three in my opinion. Gorgeous gold color, perfectly clear with a good bone-white head with great retention. The aroma is nice. Solid straw malt, a bit of hops. The flavor isn’t quite as good as the aroma, but it’s still got a nice lager maltiness. Toss in a few more hops and this becomes a pretty good German pilsner. I likes.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Mar 26, 2007 Microfine white head which quickly disperses. Slightly darker than light golden color. Nice tastes of german-style hops. Not overly bitter, but enough there to remind you there’s hops in there. Not my favorite of the three ’06 Longshots, but an OK beer none-the-less.However, not something I’d necessarily buy if it was for sale by itself. sersdf (1000), chicago, Illinois, USA
