COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Bold and rich, with a touch of holiday spice. The first thing one notices about a Samuel Adams® Winter Lager is the deep ruby color. Then comes the magical aroma which promises something special on the tongue. The cinnamon, ginger, and hint of citrus from the orange peel blend with the roasty sweetness of the malts to deliver a warming, spicy flavor. On the palate Samuel Adams Winter Lager is rich and full bodied, robust and warming, a wonderful way to enjoy the cold evenings that come with the season.

Shadallion (534) - Sacramento, California, USA - MAY 13, 2001

Lightly spicy, wheaty tasting weizen-bock. Nowhere close to Aventinus or anything, but enjoyable nonetheless. Samuel Adams is the very definition of middle-of-the-road beers.

Good beer for a Keweenaw Peninsula winter. A real rough and solid brew.

A very rich beer. Dark and bitter, can do down a little rough at times. Great beer for the winter though, a must have.

UPDATED: MAR 9, 2003 Somewhat of a tan head. Smooth and creamy taste. This is good, but it still is very nondescript. I would never turn one down, but there is no compelling reason to buy it with beers like Sierra Nevada Celebration or Pyramid Snow Cap out there.
