Beer-a-Day #36
Samuel Adams week continues.
This is another from the Brewmaster’s Collection.
Color is like a light mahogany with a creamy head. I’m getting a bit of pineapple from the hops, but otherwise seems to have a fairly malty character. Moderate body. A bit of burnt caramel in the flavor. It’s not awful, but I don’t know if I like it all that much.
Irish Red Ales are generally very bland over here. If you can detect hops in the Sam Adams beer it isn’t a true representation and likely much more tasty than the original.
