Beer Review: Sam Adams Boston Ale


I'm of two minds on this one: I think that non-craft beer drinkers would like this one, and it's very drinkable, but there's nothing about it that jumps out at you. Pretty weak head, dissipating from about 1/4 of the glass down to a narrow ring pretty quickly. Not as dark as the Boston Lager, kind of a light amber-ish color. The malt outweighs the hops, but neither really dominates. I can imagine using this as a stealth brew to get some Bud & Miller drinkers to try to more complicated styles. Sssshhhhh.
