Got my 1st case of the season at BJ's. $22.99
I've had a couple of bottles and it seems to be a good batch this year. Seems a little early though. But not out for long so getting it while it's here. Probably my favorite Sam Adams brew. |

I've run through a couple of 6's myself. Love it in a glass, because it has a really nice color to it. Makes me long for a Pumpkin Ale.

Exactly why I like this beer. I'm not an IPA guy at all. IPA reminds me of the "Bitter beer face" commercial a few years back. Give me malty and I am a happy camper.

IPA as I remember them were good, crisp, bitter balancing the malt, but the contest to see who can get the highest IBU content is just brewing bull crap IMHO.

Spaten is good stuff... also look for Marzen beers as that's what the Germans call it

Coming back next month on a "working" vacation for two weeks.
Thanks for the head's up on this, guys. I will have a constantly elevated BAC the whole time I'm back.
