Bottle: some yeasty notes, some malty notes, some caramel and honey like sweetness, weak bitterness, faint roasted notes the spices are really mild, the flavor itself is a bit too mild as well, very short finish with almost no aftertaste, nice beer but somewhat lacking in charecter.

Very average for Samuel Adams. Once you’ve had it it’s time to buy something else.

Bottle: Malty and sweet, some hops traces. Drinkable but nothing out of this world.

Chewy flavor of wet cardboard and rubber. Thin mouth feel, light body. Looks good but doesn’t have much else going for it. No need to revisit.
