2010 Samuel Adams Longshot Series Old Ben Ale

By Greg Barbera Published January 1979, Volume , Number

The last beer from the LongShot Series the staff sampled was Michael Robinson’s Old Ben Ale.Described as an English-style ale, the beer poured copper in color with a tan head that quickly dissipated. Notes of maple and molasses as well as brown sugar and dark, dried fruit merged with a malty background. Surprisingly, there wasn’t a lot of alcohol burn for a beer with an ABV of nine percent.
