So z6joker9 and I took out a case of the new Sam Adams Winter collection Beer.....

Winter Lager. A-

Boston Lages A

Holiday Porter A+

Old Fezziwig Ale B+

Chocolate Bock C+ 🍺 kinda weird tasting

Black & Brew A++

We drank a few others but were so lit they all tasted the same

A pumpkin ale and a fireside ale. Both were pretty nasty!!!![ram27bat]

Choc bock was good to sip, but it's a single bottle beer. You wouldn't want to drink a 6pk at once for sure

Thick, allot of choch flavor, smooth but just too over powering

Chocolate bock was very weird. Strong chocolate taste, smooth and creamy, not bad but not what beer is supposed to taste like. You're not going to pour it out, but you're not going to reach for a 2nd one either.

Bloody mary's were even better today, having rested a bit.

To show tastes vary, I buy the sampler just to get the chocolate bock. The winter porter I agree is good, the lager is decent, Old Fezziwig was good last year, but the one I found and just had from last year showed they don't age well.

I drink just about anything... but I draw the line at SA. I love all kinds of REAL micro brews. I could take alot of bad beer and put it in a glass and alot of the micro brew aficionados would say it was delicious.

it's hard to screw up a lager, not impossible as some beers prove
