Sam Adams hold a yearly competition called "Long Shot". It is a large advertised national homebrew competition. The winners beer gets made by Sam Adam and sold in the seasonal Long Shot packaging.
This beer's aroma has a clove spice aroma with a light malt note. The appearance is dark brown and hazy. The head is very thick with the initial pour filling the glass almost to the top.
This beer has a slight bubble gum sweet taste. The taste also has a pronounced clove flavor that is blending with the sweetness. The mouthfeel is thin and smooth. The finish is clean with just a light clove taste remaining.
This is a nice straight, tasty beer. Nothing too complex going on, but still a nice taste. I am not very familiar with this style of beer, but I will keep an eye out for others if they taste this good.
