Well, I gotta be fair. I’m a bit out on a limb in the post about wine. I do like a good red, though my palate might not recognize a bad red.
So, what about beer? I have to say that even though it is only September, Sam Adams’ Octoberfest comes on pretty well. Now with beer I am more in my league.
The Octoberfest is a good looking brew….deep redish coppery colored beer with a sandy, tan head. I smelled the malt. It has a medium malty taste with honey and apples mixed in. Very Good.
Makes this Presbyterian proud to be an American Presbyterian!

How much per 6-pack? What do you think about other Sam Adam’ brews?

Wes, I can’t remember how much. Seems like $6 or $7 dollars. Well worth it.
As to other Sam Adams, I usually get SA around some holiday–Memorial Day, Labor Day, etc. Hard to beat regular SA in the bottle. SA is probably my favorite domestic brew.

Nothing like a cooler full of Sams — Boston or Winter lager — that have been on ice for about two hours! And it’s also nice to shake up a little lime juice, simple syrup, 100% Blue Agave tequila (Cuervo Tradicional is great), and ice — summertime or not.
