Samuel Adams Summer Ale
The last of my summer sampler. Boo. Hazy yellow orange with poor head retention, which poured out slightly frothy and off white. Yeasty, grainy aroma with sweet undercurrents. Citrus peel is very slight but noticable. Very two faced: sweet and sour. The sour flavor is immediately there, with the old grain and yeast quality. The sweet is the latent flavor, pushing through and making a killer contibution. Creamy and fizzy feel. Slightly watery, but full enough for it to be a really refreshing brew. The beer is certainly refreshing, but the sour is a bit off putting all the way throught the beer. Good but not great.
