draft: Just like the Dark Lager but more roasted malts & spice. I find the Sam Adams beers just really lack that smooth finish that higher quality malts bring to a beer. Not a bad beer, but by no means will I go out of my way to get this. Forgettable.

On tap, dark amber, warm and full bodied, fairly complex, nice bitter finish, a good winter brew

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.
