Comments: Picked up a six pack of Victory Old Horizontal Ale today and find myself pretty impressed.  In the glass, this beer is a dark red, cloudy with lots of carbonation and a thick, thick head.  The aroma gives off hints of citrus and oddly watermelon.  The citrus in the flavor as well mixed with a strong but not overpowering taste of alcohol. Leaves a sticky, caramel feel on the tongue with a tasty, lasting aftertaste.  Went very well with the Indian dinner we ate tonight.
