Sam Adams LongShot – Double IPA

Sam Adams LongShot Double IPABeer-a-Day #175

Sam Adams week continues with the last of the LongShot winners. Actually, this was a winner from 2007 that needed to wait until 2009 until Sam Adams could “source the ingredients needed to provide a true representation of his recipe.”

I’m fine with having waited. A Double IPA is right up my alley.

(Gee, I hop that’s yeast floating in the bottom of the bottle…)

Hazy amber with a finger’s worth of head. Earthy, grassy, aroma; loads of hops. And then a boatload of hops in the flavor. Wow!
