LongShot Old Ben Ale
Brilliant ruby amber hue. Head didn't want to come out but once it did, it was pillowy white. Smells of molasses, raisins and dates and is generally a little overboard on the sweetness. Tastes even sweeter at first but seems to mellow out rapidly. After the initial rush of sickly sweet dark fruit, there's some interesting pumpkin spice flavor and a nice little alcohol warmth without being boozy. Feels nice and full in the mouth and turned out to be much more drinkable than I thought. Kind of a roller coaster ride. I was excited to try it, dissapointed when I did, and pleasantly surprised as I kept drinking. That doesn't happen too often.
